Olaf, Related to what Roberto wrote above about the shared libraries, here is how I would create the .orig.tar.gz : sh legends_linux-0.4.1.42.run --noexec --keep --nox11 \ --target legends-0.4.1.42/legends_release rm legends-0.4.1.42/legends_release/libSDL-1.2.so.0 rm legends-0.4.1.42/legends_release/libSDL-1.3.so.0 rm legends-0.4.1.42/legends_release/libogg.so.0 rm legends-0.4.1.42/legends_release/libvorbis.so.0 rm legends-0.4.1.42/legends_release/libopenal.so rm legends-0.4.1.42/legends_release/OPENAL32.DLL rm legends-0.4.1.42/legends_release/ReadMe_legals.txt rm legends-0.4.1.42/legends_release/runlegends rm legends-0.4.1.42/legends_release/install.sh tar czf legends.tgz legends-0.4.1.42 rm -rf legends-0.4.1.42 Regards, Bart Martens -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
