I just checked out a fresh tree just fine to test out your problem, though i was having trouble logging in a second before that. I think sourceforge is just having issues, that is not uncommon.

Do you per chance have that on a filesystem that isn't case sensitive? In the alpha directory there is both a 'Config' file and a 'config' directory.
very good point. I'm doing under cygwin.:-( --- Richard Smith rsmith@bitworks.com wrote:

This has come up before. Ron perhaps in new developemnet tree you should use an extension for the 'Config' file like Config.lbc or .nlb

oh my, that would break so much. I think I'd rather rename the directory.

Why? Shouldn't that be a simple change in nlbconfig.py and then a find command that renames ever occurance of Config to Config.xxx?

good point, I just worry about these big changes as it always seems to uncover Something I Didn't Think Of.
I'll try it out later this week.

I get this problem under MacOS X, since it uses a non case-sensitive filesystem as well. I'd support it being fixed if possible.

everyone who wants Config files to become Config.lbc tell me.
Everyone who wants to rename the config directories as config.d, tell me.

My vote: keep config dirs the same. Rename Config to Config.lbc.

Renaming config to config.d won't help as you will retain phantom directories in CVS. So the problem will continue, except for releases.
I don't know if renaming the Config files will help, either, but it should as deleted files are not checked out. How about just Config.lb I don't think the extra c buys us anything.
In addition while I can see supporting case insensitive filesystems supporting only 8.3 filenames is out. We have files in the tree that are too long already and it will be too easy to make that mistake.
