it's still too chatty. Configure makes a lot of noise.
Actually the redirect works well, esp. now that someone explained the redirect (new to 'sudo' too)
spoke too soon. it didn't work. I think it has something to do with zsh.
Anyway, I decided that what I really wanted was a lot of the installs anyway, in some organized fashion, so I made a shell script, which works fine under 'sudo'
Here it is in case anyone is curious
