That's correct if *everything builds*. If build failed (for some reason), and package is HUGE (like XFree86, or KDE, or Mozilla) - it's much faster to start building it from the place whwere it stopped. Note that '--short-circuit' is kind of hack, and it may mot work on your version of Linux. And, or course, it's much better when everything builds without such hacks :-) | | bye | ago -- Best Regards, Vadim Plessky SVG Icons * BlueSphere Icons 0.3.0 released http://svgicons.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
