Description
Running
dfx extension install <extension>
immediately after installing a new dfx version, or afterdfx cache delete
, would result in a cache directory that contained only anextensions
subdirectory.Later, dfx would see that the cache directory exists and therefore not install it. Then, commands like
dfx start
ordfx build
would fail due to missing files.Fixes: https://dfinity.atlassian.net/browse/SDK-1240
