That doesn't tell anything. It is highly likely to have grep in the build environment (and it will be in the correct place for a native build), but to have less installed there is highly *un*likely. Just because less isn't installed during build (and it is not required for building in any way) does not mean it is unavailable. -- Andreas Schwab, sch...@linux-m68k.org GPG Key fingerprint = 7578 EB47 D4E5 4D69 2510 2552 DF73 E780 A9DA AEC1 "And now for something completely different."
