Does Lion "reset" the file system? I have stuff like Perl and Python that I installed myself. Some stuff resides in /usr/local/bin and other stuff in ~/Library/.
Was wondering if that all got wiped on the install?
- ben1040 15y agoAll my /usr/local remained intact on upgrade. I believe this was the standard behavior with an upgrade install on previous OS X releases, and it got moved out of the way when you did an "archive and install." I couldn't even find an option to archive and install on Lion, does it even exist? I would rather have done that and gotten rid of all the cruft I've accumulated.
- sigzero 15y agoI was thinking of the cruft as well. But don't want to lose my iTunes settings etc.
