[Help-stow] stow: ERROR: canon_path: cannot chdir to "/opt/stow" from /Users/me

[Stephane Plaisance | VIB |]

Although stow worked few days ago it now refuses to register a new app

# eg

cd /opt/stow

# a folder newapp is there with subfolder bin and more

sudo stow -D newapp

# returns:

stow: ERROR: canon_path: cannot chdir to "/opt/stow” from "/opt/stow”

# which would look like easy to me!

What did I do wrong since install?

my conf file is:

# /Users/me/.stowrc

--dir=/opt/stow

--target=/usr/local

Thanks in advance
