Yes, exactly, these are the commands the Makefile uses to get the flags to pass to mkoctfile when it builds the package. You shouldn't have to modify anything. I'm not sure what to make of it that it's not working in this case. A new release of the communications package should be available for download soon, you can try that and see if it works better for you. -- mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
