By messed up I meant that if you use the normal way of running tests: ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make -k check || true && make install The make check will run configure again (twice actually) and overwrite the files that were generated by "./configure --prefix=/usr && make". Hence the standard way of building the tests is the one that Randy has attached it the patch (i.e. run make check first, do a distclean and then run the normal instructions). -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
