You should definitely look a checkinstall as an alternative to "make install". openSUSE is an rpm based system and expects to be able to find all its packages in the rpm db. "make install" does *not* up date the db. Future rpm installs may cause problems with your vim install and may overwrite files which vim depends. AND, "make install" operations are *definitely* not for newbies! -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
