Write error during install package.

[dajoen]

I'm trying to cinst KickAssVim on my work PC and am having trouble doing that. The install bails with a write error. And I'm not sure what the path is where the write error occurs.

Here is the output:

Use -debug as well when you report issues. :)

Sorry, fixed it myself. -debug was what I needed to see what went wrong. Deleted all dependencies from lib and everything from lib-bad and now I could install KickAssVim without issues.

What was the issue?

In case there is something to follow up on and fix. :)

The issue was that the moving of the package to the lib-false directory was failing. After emptying that directory I was able to reinstall.
