Needless to say, I don't often build from source and I am not a frequent user of m-a, which says on its man page: "auto-install | a-i auto-install is followed by one or more packages desired for installation. It will run prepare to configure your system to build packages, get the package source, try to build it for the current kernel and install it....." The part in question is "get the package source", which sounds to me like it absolves me of the responsibility for getting the source. At least that is how I read it. Is the man page wrong or incomplete? Thanks again, Clayton -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
