~

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

It seems that fedora create a ~ sub directory without I can control it.
Can I avoid it?
I do not see the point because ~ is the home directory, why do we need
a ~ subdirectory in any directory?

Thank.

None of my systems have this.  Something you're running or doing must be creating it.

Delete the directory and take notice if it gets recreated.

Is it possible that at some point you make a typing error and added a space to with in a mkdir command such as....

mkdir ~ /qqq   ?

I do not have a single directory with ~ anywhere.
You probably have\had a command set up with ~ in it.

No, it doesn't.

Or to put it differently: If you say "fedora", that's very vague.
The GNOME Workstation product certainly does not create such a ~ subdir.
It could be a problem caused by some software you have run.

Please explain. What do you mean?

"mkdir ~ ; rmdir ~" would be a valid way to create and remove such
a ~ subdirectory.

First you need to find out when exactly this gets created and who creates
it.

[Patrick Dupre]

OK,

I see.
it is created by make install!
Actually it create a subdir ~ and copy the file here whil it should copy
the file in ~/

I am a big problem with XS to generate my library with fedora 22
I cannot make them run anymore.

I used to do
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install

I do not know are to solve this issue!

The make file is created by perl
Inside, there is:
INSTALLSITELIB = ~/perl_lib

It looks like that the make install create a subdirectory ~
and does not used the home directory.
How can I prevent this?

is it a directory, or is it a symlink to .  (dot) ?

It is a real sub directory (with the right hierarchy) only containing the 
the .pm and .so files.

Again this is because ~ is not interpreted correctly by make.
