[Vm-dev] linux mvm scripts and checkSCCSversion

[Tim Johnson]

Hi,

When I am in the directory e.g.

build.linux32x86/squeak.cog.spur/build.assert

and I run ./mvm I get:

./mvm: line 18: ../../scripts/checkSCCSversion: No such file or  
directory

so if I change mvm to call ../../../scripts/checkSCCSversion it works  
fine.

The "makeall*" scripts don't fail, I think, because they trap the  
error and ignore it:

~/src/opensmalltalk-vm/build.linux32x86/squeak.cog.spur$ ./makeallclean
./mvm: line 22: ../../scripts/checkSCCSversion: No such file or  
directory
clean? for f in *; do case "$f" in mvm) ;; *) rm -rf $f; esac; done

I assume the other platforms don't fail simply because they nest their  
build directories only two-deep rather than three:

~/src/opensmalltalk-vm$ find . -name mvm
./build.linux32x86/newspeak.stack.spur/build.debug/mvm
[...]
./build.macos32x86/pharo.cog.v3/mvm
[...]
./build.win64x64/squeak.stack.spur/mvm
[...]
./build.linux32ARMv6/squeak.stack.v3/build.debug/mvm

So, my question:  does this matter?  Does checkSCCSversion make a  
difference on linux?  If so, would it be worth my while to prepare a  
PR which updates all mvm scripts within nested linux build directories  
to invoke ../../../scripts/checkSCCSversion rather than ../../scripts/ 
checkSCCSversion ?

Thanks,
