The history is all screwed up. Env vars inserted by /etc/profile work fine. Those I insert disappear randomly. I have only seen in this build (SVN-20071022) but never noticed until I tried to build X-server. Problems seem to occur after library build. here is script from blfs which is not too weird: ================================================= cd lib bash -e for package in $(cat ../lib-7.1.wget) do packagedir=$(echo $package | sed 's/.tar.bz2//') tar -jxf $package cd $packagedir ./configure $XORG_CONFIG make make install && ldconfig cd .. rm -rf $packagedir done 2>&1 | tee -a ../xorg-compile.log #log the entire loop cd .. ================================================ I have rebuilt bash to no avail. The fixes-6 patch is the only change. (LIGHTBULB) I will revert to the previous (fixes-5) patch.
