Ahh, i nearly overlooked it. This is the perfect solution - when it works (i'll try). To those who care: I work under Solaris. The name of the variable doesn't matter - i'm just used to TMP (home and work) for no particular reason. Though, TMPDAT has the "disadvantage" that the compiler also places its tempfiles there - don't know how much this affects performance. And while i'm at it: looks like a zero byte file "openpkg.boot.install.sh" survives the cleanup in the end of the build ;-) (mk) -- Matthias Kurz; Fuldastr. 3; D-28199 Bremen; VOICE +49 421 53 600 47 >> Im pr�motorischen Cortex kann jeder ein Held sein.
