[Gnumed-devel] Problems restoring database on Mac - unsupported rmdir -v

[Busser, Jim]

On Mac OS,

        rmdir

supports only [-p] for the removal of parent directories

        
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man1/rmdir.1.html

So can the

        -v

be dispensed with?

Also, following multiple attempts, I ended up with more than a dozen working 
directories all at the root level.  Shouldn't such working directories 
containing copies of backup files be written inside

        /tmp/

??

Output of

        ls /gm-restor*
