That happened because the errors caused by the failure to remove two files in the build directory resulted in the script exiting the shell at that exact point, as it should I guess. That particular package is somewhere in the middle of the md5 file. Nothing following it was installed. All of this happened without a lot of visual evidence that anything went awry. The two single lines reporting the error are plainly there if I am looking for them, but not particularly noticeable the first time as I was moving fast through this stuff as usual. Anyway, the one thing that made me stop and start looking at it was that the exit command logged me out of the console instead of merely dropping back to the previous shell. I repeated this several times. It happens consistently. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
