misc/60516: Few clashing paths in the source tree, with NTFS
>Number: 60516
>Category: misc
>Synopsis: Few clashing paths in the source tree, with NTFS
>Confidential: no
>Severity: non-critical
>Priority: low
>Responsible: misc-bug-people
>State: open
>Class: change-request
>Submitter-Id: net
>Arrival-Date: Wed Jul 29 17:05:00 +0000 2026
>Originator: Mahied Maruf
>Release: 11.0_RC7
>Organization:
siriushq.org
>Environment:
N/A
>Description:
I notice that in '/src/external/mit/xorg/lib/xcb-util/aux/` and
`/src/sys/external/bsd/drm2/dist/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/i2c/aux.h`,
these two paths contain the 'aux' word which makes it troublesome to
clone a NetBSD source tree on Windows / NTFS, due to that being illegal
in the path. An unconventional use case, but worth tracking anyway.
They are both in external projects, so this may be just for tracking
issues upstream, that can be opened and linked?
>How-To-Repeat:
Clone on a Windows machine.
>Fix:
Renaming paths to not contain 'aux' keyword.
Must be accepted by upstream for this to be possible.
