gdb uses internal versions of readline, etc. for building. If you do a make install from the top-level directory, these libraries also get installed (over-writing potentially newer versions already installed). I think the docs included in the package mention the cd gdb && make install, but I may be wrong. -- Tushar Teredesai mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~tushar/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
