           Summary: Hardlinks and castfs (staged install)
           Product: Sorcery
           Version: Untargetted future release
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: ASSIGNED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: stage install
        AssignedTo: sm-sorcery-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
        ReportedBy: stealth AT sourcemage.org


When it's done (`ln', `cp -l') somewhere in Makefiles of a spell, castfs works
fine but sorcery simply copies (`cp') the files from stage dir to the system 
--
every binary instead of their hard links.

To fix this, we need to compare all files in a stage (check them with `stat'
for inodes) and do `cp -l' or `ln' where needed.

git is a spell that has a lot of hardlinks, where such problem had been found.

Until we fix it in sorcery, 'STAGED_INSTALL=off' is recommended for those
spells with hardlinks in installation.

The target stuff to fix is stage_install_file() in libstage.
