install: create_symlink() check unlink() return value
create_symlink() do not check the return value of unlink(), this may confuse the user. Before the unlink() call we check the 'force' argument. If it is not set we fail with -EEXIST, otherwise we unlink() the file, therefore the next symlink() should not fail with -EEXIST (do not count races...). However since callers may not have appropriate privileges to unlink() the file we lose the -EPERM or any other errno code of unlink(), and return the -EEXIST of the next symlink(). Fix this by checking unlink() results. Before: $ systemctl --force --root=~/container-03 set-default multi-user.target Failed to set default target: File exists After: $ systemctl --force --root=~/container-03 set-default multi-user.target Failed to set default target: Permission denied
