Purely as a workaround I would suggest overriding the install program with the newly compiled install program. That way the options will work. Something like this. This is untested but I believe it would work. make INSTALL=./src/install install Or use the autoconf version which is shipped with most configure based programs. make INSTALL=./install-sh install Bob _______________________________________________ Bug-fileutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-fileutils
