Not sure about this either. If it puts files in them, and executable file is just a type of file, then executable must be there too, right? Again, not enough context, not enough detail. Just installing something to /usr/local may not necessary work if app references data files using hard-coded paths. That's exactly which gap ipkg-link tries to fill. At the very least, you should have PATH set properly, in your case it would be something like /usr/local/usr/bin/ (and using /usr/local for package install root is weird choice on its own). > > -- > Harmon Seaver > [] -- Best regards, Paul mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-users
