Not that it makes any difference to this discussion, but I prefer to use /usr/src/(pkgname)/ for source tarballs. I sometimes build there and sometimes in /tmp e.g. DIR=`pwd` PROGRAM=xchat-2.6.2 LOG=$DIR/$PROGRAM.log TITLE=$PROGRAM TIMEFORMAT="$TIMEFMT $TITLE" BUILDDIR=/tmp/xchat DEST=$BUILDDIR/install rm -rf $BUILDDIR mkdir $BUILDDIR cd $BUILDDIR tar -xf $DIR/$PROGRAM.tar.?z* || exit 1 ... make DESTDIR=$DEST install -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
