Windows: Directory rename sometimes fails
when using Vcpkg on WSL in Windows when installing large packages like boost that maybe takes long time for antivirus to scan or for os to notice the folder, the rename fails. with file access error
maybe this issue is related.
#19580
- I already had installed vcpkg in c:\vcpkg. (worked with it on windows)
- then I installed wsl2 on windows and installed ubuntu
- i installed build-essentials on ubuntu
- went to /mnt/c/vcpkg
- and recompiled vcpkg for linux with vcpkg\bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
- then i ran /mnt/c/vcpkg/vcpkg install boost
- and had many errors of on rename of folder freshly extracted from a zip file.
the error is https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/issues/12204
