Re: [ice-dev] Installer fails if zip file is already in the directory
|
Andrew,
I haven't tried the new one yet. My laptop is updating to Fedora 23.
I'm complaining because we didn't have a clear migration path between the bash and python versions, which resulted in my error. As a result, I had to dump the entire directory and start over, which takes forever and is annoying.

From what your stack trace looks like the installer is not trying to replace a directory, but a file. The installer shouldn't be erasing that. If the installer encounters a directory that it wants to replace, then it will work.
The Python install script has a bit different structure from the Bash one, so they won't be exactly compatible. I have updated the Python version, if you try to reproduce your error you should now see:
--------------------------- ERROR -----------------------------
Cannot create directory ICE. File already exists.
Either delete this file, or specify a different installation
location by using the --prefix option.
--------------------------- ERROR -----------------------------
If this isn't what you see, I am misunderstanding what the issue is. Could you provide the command you are using to invoke the installer as well as the output of `ls` in the directory you are trying to install in?
Andrew
