Summary
When a tool in the Lucafile is a direct binary download (not an archive) and has binaryPath set to a name different from the tool's name, e.g.:
…Luca would re-download the binary on every
luca installinvocation, then fail trying to move the file because it already existed on disk.Root cause
installExecutable()stored the downloaded file usingdesiredBinaryName ?? name(resolving to"FirebaseCLI"in this example), butisToolInstalledlooked for the binary atbinaryPath(resolving to"firebase"). These two never agreed, so the tool was always considered absent.Fix
Replace the name resolution in
installExecutable()withtool.effectiveBinaryPath(desiredBinaryName ?? binaryPath ?? name), which is already the single source of truth used by the rest of the system (SymLinker,PermissionManager, etc).Note
There's no behaviour change for tools that don't specify
binaryPathor that usedesiredBinaryNameType of Change
