"creates" doesn't work for :dump action

Open timepieces141 opened this issue 11 years ago • 1 comments

In one of my recipes I remove a version-specific directory before using ark to :dump to that directory. However, when using :dump, this recipe does not work twice in a row even though the destination is empty each time ark is called. I figured this was because I was not using the "creates" attribute, so I tried that out. It seemed to have no effect. I dug a little deeper and noticed that the creates attribute is actually never used in the :dump action section of the provider. If this is not a bug, I apologize - can you point me in the direction that I can flush previous unpack directories and unpack every time?

I marked it as a bug and I'm sure it is one. Next week I have some time to address this issue and others.
