Created attachment 148596 [details] Adds a -H to all uses of find(1) in distviper so symlinks are handled correctly By default find(1) will not follow symlinks given on the command-line. There are several places in distviper where find is used without allowing for this. In particular in the default mode, if PORTSDIR is a link and DISTDIR isn't, then no distinfo files are found and all the distfiles are deleted. This can be fixed by either making sure that find is given directory names that end in a "/" or with the -H option.
