It'd be nice to just put it in the book in the configure statement. You can set --with-xauth=/path/to/xauth. However, at that point, you might not know what the path will be. But that option should at least be noted in Command Explanations. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
