Hi,

Do you have some reason why -f (forced) parameter works ok if
destionation where link point is a file, then it could update link by
using forced mode.
If destionation where link point is folder then -f parameter not update
link in this situation.

	As you could see link still point to "EKA_DIR"... it should
point to "TOKA_DIR" because there was -f parameter defined in ln
command.
