Customers are finding that when they update their installation directory, thebin directory has been cleaned out.
CAUSE:
Before asking where the update files should be installed, the install programasks where temporary install files should be put. The default is$USER/xinstall/. If users change this and specify $XACT as the temporary"xinstall" directory, then the "$XACT/bin/{platform}" directory will getwiped out.
Note: The install program warns that this will happen.The program uses the xinstall directory as a temporary place to run theinstallation program from and keep it's data files. Before each installationthe install script cleans up this directory and then copies the newinstallation stuff to it.
