I see where the problem is now. I understand the /usr - /usr/local I use /usr for everything. During the build process executable binaries should go in /usr/bin. The sentence says copy it there. If it is not there already then where is it? Does it not get put there until make install? Because the same paragraph says it needs to be there before running make test, which is done before make install. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
