"build" overwrites thorn list

Issue #288 closed
Erik Schnetter created an issue

The command "sim build empty" overrides the existing thornlist of configuration empty with the default thorn list that I have set in defs.local.ini. It should not change the thorn list unless (a) there is no thorn list, or (b) I specify the --thornlist option.

    I am unable to reproduce. This behaves correctly for me. Could you provide logs/output showing this behavior?

    Did you set a global default thorn list in your defs.local.ini?

    I first build with an empty thorn list:

    ./bin/sim build --debug empty --thornlist=par/empty.th

    Then I build again:

    ./bin/sim build empty

    This outputs:

    This shows that the thorn list is changed.

    Simfactory has been modified to not overwrite the thornlist, optionlist, or either *script file unless the --thornlist, --optionlist, etc arguments are explicitly stated on the command line.
