https://gist.github.com/yiufung/7445219 fixes the errors spat out by calling "rm" after "mv" since that command already remove the origin file.

This works, but I wanted to Rubify it! Anyone can check that out here: https://gist.github.com/SteveBenner/10938596.

It uses Ruby module FileUtils, but falls back to shell commands if you can't include the module for some reason. It also prevents you from running the script if you don't need to.

This little snippet demonstrates nicely the idea, but it lacks important verifications, symlinks aren't copied over and the pkgconfig files aren't moved to the right subdir.
Fixed, tested on Yosemite the gist is here.
Thanx to Aaron, James and Yiufung . enjoy...
