Description
Context & Analysis
when using makenemo -e option to use a custom modified src directory instead of MY_SRC, Fmake_WORK.sh script will first create symlinks from the custom dir to the MY_SRC dir, then from MY_SRC dir to WORK dir.
If by any misfortune you have already another modified version of the same source file in MY_SRC dir, this file will be overwritten by the symlink from the custom dir, which can be disappointing.
Recommendation
Instead of doing a symlink of symlink from custom dir -> MY_SRC dir -> WORK dir, just simply do a symlink from custom dir to WORK dir
