Joey, please see RecentChanges and note that this is my second bug report, because the first was unsuccessfully (bad characters in post title?). Could you please tidy it up? > I've fixed that and the bug that caused the dup. >> Thanks a lot! :) I've just upgraded my ikiwiki from version 2.11 to the latest version 2.15. I use my own rebuilt ikiwiki package for Ubuntu Gutsy box. Now I can't rebuild all my ikiwiki pages, because of the following bug: ptecza@anahaim:~/blog$ ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup --getctime --verbose [...] scanning post/2007/12/09/pink-freud-w-cafe-kulturalna.mdwn ikiwiki.setup: Insecure dependency in mkdir while running with -T switch at /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki.pm line 355. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 5) line 151. I have a write permission to the ikiwiki destination directory: ptecza@anahaim:~/blog$ ls -ld /var/www/blog/ drwxr-xr-x 2 ptecza ptecza 4096 2007-12-17 10:48 /var/www/blog/ I've read ikiwiki changelog for the previous releases and unfortunately I can't see any related entries. Any ideas? --[[Paweł|ptecza]] > **Update**: I've came back to ikiwiki 2.11 and... the bug still exists! > Probably the reason is that I've removed all content of `/var/www/blog/` > before mass rebuilding. --[[Paweł|ptecza]] > I can't reproduce this bug with a setup file that tells ikiwiki to > write to /var/www/blog, which doesn't exist.
