Quitch installs mod
Mod throws up error on a .d
Mod uninstalls
Mod asks "do you wish to install me?"
Quitch corrects problem in .d
Quitch tries to save .d... cannot, file is in use.

You have to quit WeiDU and then save the file... but why is WeiDU holding the file? The install failed. If you have a lot of smaller components, this becomes tiresome.

Tested under v73.

Let me guess, the error is a "parse error"?

Turns out there's a small condition (parse errors only) that has weidu hold onto a D file. I'll fix it for the next version.

If it is not a "parse error", this fix will not fix your problem and you should repost with a much more explicit trace of what happened.

It fixes the problem, but now seems to break COPY_EXISTING

Unable to Unlink [override/ar0420.are/AR0420.ARE]: Unix.Unix_error(20, "unlink", "override/ar0420.are/AR0420.ARE")Uninstalled 555 files for [RTW.TP2] component 0.
ERROR: Sys_error("override/ar0420.are/AR0420.ARE: No such file or directory")

I went back to v72 and the installation worked fine. The problem block is this:

COPY_EXISTING ~ar0420.are~
~override/ar0420.are~
WRITE_ASCII 0x19c ~ICSALCOL.cre~
WRITE_ASCII 0x2ac ~ICSALCOL.cre~
WRITE_ASCII 0x3bc ~ICSALCOL.cre~
WRITE_ASCII 0x4cc ~ICSALCOL.cre~

It worked under v73 and hasn't been touched since.

weidu v75 up, should "un-break" COPY_EXISTING.
