Thanks for the tip. This solution will be best when there's no need to separate the prog into parts -- it sure clears up the confusion in the dev directory.gposil wrote:On new2dir point...thanks for that explanation for musher0 Mick...also alot of developers including me don't use new2dir, because they don't want the install in their development environment..The alternative is very simple, just a switch in the make install.
Just use make install DESTDIR=/blah and your new compiled app's complete directory structure will be in /blah and not installed in your development environment.

although more work, it is (my opinion) better to allways try to use DESTDIR . The simple explanation is that
(a) new2dir sometimes fails in getting all the files and
(b) that you can't control your packages if you install with new2dir because you've allready installed the full pkg.

Ah well, that's the price we pay for living out in the country on 2400acre farm...ADSL will never come here but we may get digital optic fibre cable next year(maybe). For the time being satellite is the only alternative to 56k dialup...

Hmmm,
A bit pricey that satellite stuff... not to mention setup costs..
gposil's plan is twice the price of mine with half the value... that is the comparison of sat to adsl2+. I only live 2 km from the telephone exchange whereas gposil may be 50km (?) from one. Adsl is only good for about 5km from an exchange here I think (well that was a few years ago, I don't think it has improved a great deal).
Cheers

What do you say about a new thread when beta5 does eventually find it's way to us? This one is starting to get long. Er... the last 2 pages are all but irrelevant! (Yes... I'm guilty too)

You could never become a Sith masterI'm going to have to stop the upload as we are about to get large electrical storm
We do our best work during storms
In case the worse should happen (lightening strike)
consider placing a copy of beta 5 in a sealed wire cage box
We can then send a Puppy forensic team to make a recovery
amongst the lightening struck remains . . .
Are you on a sheep farm?
Maybe a few ready barbecued sheep would be available
for rescuers?
Stay safe.

Guys...I have to apologize, it appears I will have to wait until Tuesday morning to upload beta5, it just keeps crapping out...with full speed it only takes about 10-15 minutes to upload the iso, so that's it then...
Sorry
