#2623: Colons in parent's parent directory name causes build failure
Reporter: Zach Etienne Status: new Milestone: Version: Type: bug Priority: major Component:
Steps to reproduce (on Ubuntu 22.04, and I’ve reproduced this on Rocky Linux 8 as well).
Go to `/tmp/` , create a directory named `ETK_builds/Riemann:test:sed` Go to this directory: `cd /tmp/ETK_builds/Riemann:test:sed` . Download the latest Toolkit release (Riemann), following the official instructions:
``` curl -kLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gridaphobe/CRL/ET_2022_05/GetComponents chmod a+x GetComponents ./GetComponents --parallel https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/manifest/raw/ET_2022_05/einsteintoolki... ```
Copy the config scripts attached to this ticket to `Cactus` and go into `Cactus`. Upon running the `make blah-config`, you will get errors of the form
``` creating make.config.defn sed: can't read /tmp/ETK_builds/Riemann: No such file or directory sed: can't read /tmp/ETK_builds/Riemann:test:sed/Cactus/lib/make/test: No such file or directory sed: can't read /tmp/ETK_builds/Riemann:test:sed/Cactus/lib/make/sed/Cactus/lib/make/make.config.defn.in: No such file or directory ```
… and you will be unable to build the Toolkit. attachment: make_config-runmefirst (https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/einsteintoolkit/tickets/issues/26...) attachment: ubuntu-gcc.cfg (https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/einsteintoolkit/tickets/issues/26...)
