That's a good idea. Just to test if that error happens to everybody, I installed btop-1.2.12 here. Actually, it's kinda neat looking. Anyway, it installed fine here on my 8 core machine with normal -j settings, -j9 I think. It could help using -j1 tho. Still, it installed here without any problems. If -j1 doesn't work, maybe sync the tree again to see if maybe some typo got fixed or something else was wrong during last sync. That is rare nowadays but when grasping at straws, grab what you can. Oh, my google search earlier didn't yield anything either. This seems to be a odd failure. Dale :-) :-)
