Cannot install on distros which use BusyBox. On Ubuntu everything works fine, on Alpine Linux cannot install it :(
It says "ln: unrecognized option: -r"
Line: ln -srf -T /usr/bin/tbsm /usr/share/doc/tbsm/"70_SourceCode"
Is -r necessary? Isn't it already a fullpath?

Did you not edit the file and go on?

Is -r necessary?

Can't remember if it was needed to work with e.g. Arch Build System or added without to think about.

Removed the option and the installation finished without errors (well, it says that tbsm doesn't exist but I think that's another problem related to the distro which uses ash instead of bash). Thank you for the quick response!

I have take a look, and yes it's needed to work with the ABS. Well, to be honest, that could be fixed somehow, but actually I'm not in the mood :-/

I tend to only add a warning or hint to the Manual.

Um, "not exist"? That should then a more seriuos problem, but you did't say tbsm is not working or not installed.

$ tbsm doc
    Available documentation:
    Manual
    SourceCode   <--Is that there?

With the latest update of the SO it seems that even if the command '-r' is not supported everything works fine, and I've noticed that has disappeared the "tbsm doesn't exist" error too. Now I can confirm that works even in Alpine Linux, yay

Because it is not really fixed it could kept open as a reminder that things could be improved.
