6.0-snapshot installed with swiftly doesn't work

[kkebo]

The current main-snapshot toolchain uses the new swift-driver and it doesn't seem to work with symlinks.

$ swiftly install main-snapshot

[adam-fowler]

Have you added an issue to https://github.com/apple/swift?

[kkebo]

No, I haven't. I didn't know where this issue should be fixed.

[adam-fowler]

I'm not sure this is something we can fix without restructuring everything.

The new swift driver is meant to be a drop in replacement for the old one. So if we lose functionality like working with symbolic linked versions of Swift then that is a bug.

If you add an issue can you link back to it here. Thanks

[kkebo]

I have understood why I should create an issue in apple/swift. Thank you. I will create an issue later.

[kkebo]

I created swiftlang/swift#70932.

[kkebo]

The issue has been fixed in the latest main-snapshot, but 6.0-snapshot still have the issue.

[patrickfreed]

Cherry-pick to 6.0 is in progress: swiftlang/swift-driver#1606

[kkebo]

Cherry-picking has been done, so I'm closing this.
