Subject: bug 3.1.5 symlinks & cd
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 1998 21:19:08 +0000 (GMT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <199811132119.VAA00557@athenaeum.demon.co.uk> (raw)
Using a stock zsh-3.1.5, there seems to be some problem with completion
using one interpretation of a directory tree with symlinks, and cd using
another. (Linux 2.0.x on x86.)
% zsh-3.1.5 -f
machinename% PS1='%~%# '
~% mkdir tmp/tst && cd tmp/tst
~/tmp/tst% mkdir foo foo/bar wibble
~/tmp/tst% ln -s foo/bar .
~/tmp/tst% cd bar
~/tmp/tst/bar%
At this points, try tab-completing "cd ../" and you get "../bar", try
../w<tab> and it beeps. Try "../../w<tab>" and you get the wibble
directory completed, but:
~/tmp/tst/bar% cd ../../wibble
cd: no such file or directory: ../../wibble
~/tmp/tst/bar% cd ../wibble
~/tmp/tst/wibble% compctl -L cd
compctl: no compctl defined for cd
Note that the ../wibble refuses to tab-complete.
HTH
