Hack the make process to change the tar command to "tar > - --no-same-owner" ... Yes :) | All these files are symbolic links to other files in the same directory. These | symbolic links come before the destination file in the html.tar archive. There | are other linked files in this html.tar where it's vice versa with no problem. But if the problem is only a change ownership problem, why is there no error message when the destination already exists? For example 'html/de/search/htdig/index.html' is a link to search.html which does not exist at the point when index.html is extracted (i think it's the same time when the owner should be changed), so i says 'file not found'. If the file would exist, there won't be an error. (See my other mail.) -- .: Torsten Veller | 1 + 1 = 3, for large values of 1. :. .: PGP 0x9C67CD96 | :. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
