[alsa-devel] [PATCH] alsa-driver git repo: Build problems when copying symlink to itself

[Colin Guthrie]

Hi,

After doing a "simple":
git clone alsa-driver
git clone alsa-kernel
cd alsa-driver
./gitcompile --with-debug=full --with-isapnp=yes --with-sequencer=yes
--with-moddir=updates/alsa:

The build bombed out pretty quickly with the following error.

The attached patch fixes it.
