#11334: ERROR: no write permission on /boot/home/config/bin/youtube-dl ------------------------------------+------------------------------ Reporter: Giova84 | Owner: bonefish Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: File Systems/packagefs | Version: R1/Development Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Has a Patch: 0 Platform: All | ------------------------------------+------------------------------ I was attempting to update youtube-dl script (~> youtube-dl --update); is necessary to maintain up-to-date this script. Unfortunately, since this script on Haiku, lives inside /boot/home/config/bin and needs - to be updated - the write access on the disk, i get the following error: "ERROR: no write permission on /boot/home/config/bin/youtube-dl". A workaround is to copy this script inside /boot/home/config/non- packaged/bin. I have modified the hpkg for youtube-dl (using a post-install script) to achieve this workaround during the installation of the hpkg. The following is the content of the post-install script of the youtube_dl-2014.06.19-2.hpkg: {{{ cp /boot/home/config/bin/youtube-dl /boot/home/config/non-packaged/bin chmod +w /boot/home/config/non-packaged/bin/youtube-dl }}} Note: '''it needs chmod''' because, since youtube-dl lives inside a non writable directory, is copied without the write access attribute. hrev47986 -- Ticket URL: <https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/11334> Haiku <https://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
