That's good to know - I didn't notice that distclean was an option, and have been just doing a make clean && make world - so will change my workflow to do distclean instead. When I run into build issues, I normally wait at least one additional release before reporting an issue (and take some time to look through the svn logs to see what might've caused a problem - I usually try to pinpoint the cause of the problem so I can make a useful report). In this case, I'd had some troubles for about a day and nothing in the logs was making it clear to me why I was seeing a problem (indeed, the only updates seemed to be for a different platform than what I build for). Appreciate all the tips and everyone's help. I'm still fairly new to building this code - but I also like testing bleeding-edge code. :-) Jim -- Jim Henderson Please keep on-topic replies on the list so everyone benefits _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
