That would be no good for the /tools/include dir but meaningless for the newly created "dest" dir. So when first installing to a dummy-dir and than copy over, no loss of files happens. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
