Perhaps the `install' command from coreutils could replace mkinstalldirs. I generally use `make install' with DESTDIR to create a local Slackware package but I can change that script/habit without problems: # from root mkdir slack make DESTDIR=$PWD/slack install gzip -9 slack/usr/share/man/man1/snd.1 mkdir -p slack/usr/share/doc/snd cp -r *.html pix slack/usr/share/doc/snd cp -r HISTORY.Snd NEWS README.Snd sndins tools slack/usr/share/snd cd slack makepkg -l y -c n ../snd-17.8-x86_64-1.txz upgradepkg ../snd-17.8-x86_64-1.txz _______________________________________________ Cmdist mailing list Cmdist@ccrma.stanford.edu https://cm-mail.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/cmdist
