Isn't this a Fink problem then?

Maybe, but I think that a more proper approach would be one of the following: * Decide that features specific to Apple's cp are required and change the Makefile to use /bin/cp instead of just cp. * Use configure to determine if a GNU cp is present and if so adjust the command-line parameters used. * Just use the $(INSTALL) value already set by configure as already used in the main Makefile.

IMHO the best fix would be to use "/bin/cp" instead of plain "cp". It is not possible to use $(INSTALL) here because this step does a recursive copy. NOTE: The same fix should also be applied to the trunk and release26-maint branch.

Fixed in r68150 (python-trunk), r68151 (python 2.6.x), r68152 (python 3.x). Could someone that actually has Fink installed confirm that the issue is actually fixed? My patch consists of changing 'cp' to '/bin/cp' to ensure that the system copy of that command is used.
