- There is a file named "ODF_Folder" in the "System Folder:Preferences:MPW:"
- folder which ODF Builder and other tools use to locate the ODF folder. If
- this file exists, but does not point to the right place, ODF Builder will
- just exit without providing any error feedback. Throwing away this file
- causes the builder to ask for the location of the ODF folder, and then store
- the specified pathname in the "ODF_Folder" file. This led to some confusion
- when I tried to build ODF on a different drive, and may be related to your
- problem.
