These are NOT the tarballs that will be released; rather, they are the first probe aiming to uncover whatever problems we are still unaware of (including problems with archives preparation), or, if there are none, to confirm that pending a few issues below, we are finally ready to release.
In libs/filesystem/src/operations_posix_windows.cpp around line 600 the remove function BOOST_FILESYSTEM_DECL bool remove( const path & ph ) { if ( exists( ph ) ) { ... will not delete dangling symlinks. Instead, the exists() line should be replaced with if ( exists( ph ) || symbolic_link_exists ( ph ) ) Regards, Walter Landry wlandry@ucsd.edu
