That's what I was concerned about. I *think* a parenthetical subshell *should* work. This should be considered an interim report, because I just started. Junit is still required. Configure recommended ccache for faster compiles. I got a "no rule for make all" following the book. I removed the all. Not sure of eventual success yet. Configure found the cups stuff, but later, building jdk, it failed: libcups.so.2 no such file. I've got CUPS in /usr/local. (Most stuff wants to go there and I let it.) In earlier versions configure told me how to set an environment variable to an alternate location, but not this time. Configure isn't easy to get to. It'd be simple to make a symlink, and that may be the best answer. But I'm still thinking about it. -- Paul Rogers [email protected] Rogers' Second Law: "Everything you do communicates."
