After a little googling, I suspect that's not the problem. It looks like the '/usr/bin/install: will not overwrite just-created ...' message has something to do with an erroneous attempt to install the same file twice, possibly related to behavior in specific versions of automake. That may explain the fact that I was once able to install this version of amanda, but can't now after subsequent upgrades in automake. John
