Okay, so that's pointing to the problem probably being an upstream regression (I know upstream has done work recently to try and be friendlier to drive letters, so this may be an unintentional regression there). But I know for sure that it was this release that exposed the problem - I built bash 4.3.33 on Feb 6, then you released make 4.1 on Feb 16, and I confirmed that I cannot rebuild that version of bash with the new make, at least not without new workarounds. > I will look on it Thanks. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
