Yeah, I thought about a 'case' but didn't think the extra syntax was worth it in my situation. Additionally, I'm more for letting folks figure it out on their own, but I can see trying to help them along. For example, I see now I need to modify the XORG_CONFIG var before running 'configure' on some packages, then restoring the var before beginning another loop. No brainer to me, but in order for you to accommodate these types of things on a generic basis, it may need a bunch of extra stuff in there. Feel free to do whatever you feel can make it easier on everyone, while not holding hands (try and find a nice spot in the middle?) -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.26] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 18:37:00 up 30 days, 18:51, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.01, 0.04 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
