Well that's why you specify --prefix when configuring. Look into what it does! :) One easy way to discover what it does is to run the following as a normal user (not root): mkdir /tmp/test && \ cd /tmp/test && \ git clone git://git.libusb.org/libusb.git && \ cd libusb && \ ./autogen.sh --prefix=/tmp/test/inst && \ make install && \ ls -lR /tmp/test/inst //Peter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
