Look at the command again. We're already always overwriting it. Also, with gcc-4, the specs file doesn't exist unless you dump it there first. Technically, when piping it, I guess we don't need -i. But it doesn't seem to be hurting anything, either. -- JH -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
