I wonder how that happened. It sounds like you don't have a reasonable `install' program in your path and the configure script resorted to using install-sh. In any case, you can work around it by having the install process use the just-built binary named `ginstall': make install INSTALL=`PWD`/src/ginstall _______________________________________________ Bug-fileutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-fileutils
