If you want a list of what files were installed, the easiest way is probably to do the configure/make/make install dance twice. The first time, install under a disposable directory: root# mkdir /tmp/local root# cd /your/source/directory root# ./configure --prefix=/tmp/local --whatever root# make && make install If you're planning on installing under /usr/local: root# find /tmp/local -printf "%y %p %m %u %g %l\n" | sort -k2,2 | sed -e 's!/tmp/local!/usr/local!' > list-of-installed-files root# rm -rf /tmp/local root# make distclean # or make realclean, start from scratch root# ./configure ... # use real options this time root# make && make check && make install "find" gives the filetype, path, mode, owner, group, and an optional 6th field if the file is a symbolic link; "sort" gives results sorted by filename. Some sample output: d /usr/local/bin 755 root bin f /usr/local/bin/antiword 755 root bin f /usr/local/bin/authlog 755 root bin f /usr/local/bin/avg 755 root bin l /usr/local/bin/bootlog 777 root bin authlog d /usr/local/lib 755 root bin ... Here, /usr/local/bin/bootlog is a symlink to /usr/local/bin/authlog. If you're paranoid, either save the output from "make install" or do a separate check to make sure nothing was written outside of /usr/local: root# find / /usr -xdev -mtime -1 -ls -- Karl Vogel I don't speak for the USAF or my company I put instant coffee in a microwave and went back in time. --Steven Wright -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
