Thanks for the patch, it doesn't seem to work as expected, though.
`ben tracker` downloads the Packages & Sources files again even when
`ben download` downloaded them just before. It also uses the current
working directory for the downloaded files instead of the cache-dir from
the global.conf.
It looks like this is caused by the custom template that was built with
the old ben, because switching the template to debianrt in global.conf
results in the expected behaviour.
Rebuilding the template fails when executed from the root of the git
directory:
$ ocamlbuild -pkg ben debiangis.cmxs
+ /usr/bin/ocamlopt unix.cmxa -I /usr/lib/ocaml/ocamlbuild
/usr/lib/ocaml/ocamlbuild/ocamlbuildlib.cmxa -I /usr/lib/ocaml -I
/usr/lib/ocaml/ben -I /usr/lib/ocaml/bytes -I /usr/lib/ocaml/ocamlgraph
-I /usr/lib/ocaml/pcre -I /usr/lib/ocaml/tyxml -I /usr/lib/ocaml/uutf
/usr/lib/ocaml/unix.cmxa /usr/lib/ocaml/pcre/pcre.cmxa
/usr/lib/ocaml/ocamlgraph/graph.cmxa /usr/lib/ocaml/str.cmxa
/usr/lib/ocaml/uutf/uutf.cmxa /usr/lib/ocaml/tyxml/tyxml.cmxa
/usr/lib/ocaml/ben/benl.cmxa myocamlbuild.ml
/usr/lib/ocaml/ocamlbuild/ocamlbuild.cmx -o myocamlbuild
File "myocamlbuild.ml", line 1:
Error: Files /usr/lib/ocaml/unix.cmxa and /usr/lib/ocaml/unix.cmxa
both define a module named Unix
Building the template from the templates directory works, but doesn't
generate any changes from the previous build.
Kind Regards,
Bas
