Why bother? Since everyone is required to ship install-sh anyway, why not use install-sh always? We started doing that a while ago, and the number of complaints has dropped to zero. install-sh also has the advantage that no developer gets away with writing unportable invocations of 'install'. Anyway, if someone is insisting on their own magic install program, they can always run 'configure INSTALL=/usr/bin/install'. -- Peter Eisentraut [EMAIL PROTECTED]
