I'm using the package users scheme, which collects all output (stdout, stderr, and whatever "3>" is) to files. But during the configure step for coreutils, it outputs this string to my screen:
*** %n in writable segment detected *** Here's the complete output from my somewhat improved version of the package user build script: > ./build Unpacking...successful! Configuring...*** %n in writable segment detected *** successful! Building...successful! I can certainly send the all of the files to the list, if that's helpful. BTW: Does anyone know why that's going to screen instead of to my log files? My output logging function is strongly based on the original build script commands from the package users hint: my_execute() { # $1 = what to write to screen # $2 = command set name to use in following commands echo -n ${1}... { ${2}_commands 3>&1 1>&2 2>&3 | tee "$MY_ROOT/${2}.err" ;} &>"$MY_ROOT/${2}.log" test_pipe } Chris Buxton Professional Services Men & Mice -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/hlfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
