You're using an odd character before prefix=. Just in case that's one of your problems, it should be two minus signs, i.e.: --prefix= I think, though, that your main problem is misunderstanding how --prefix= works. It specifies the top level of the whole hierarchy. I bet you now have a complete brltty-5.6 hierarchy under /sbin/. If you just want to specify that executables should go into /sbin/ then you should be specifying: --bindir=/sbin -- I believe the Bible to be the very Word of God: http://Mielke.cc/bible/ Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | WebHome: http://Mielke.cc/ EMail: [email protected] | Ottawa, Ontario | Twitter: @Dave_Mielke Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Canada K2A 1H7 | _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
