There was only one instance, STRIP_ELF, which I turned off, =0. One thing 
that would help is that it keeps asking where the source dir is 
(usr/src/OpenLinux). How can I tell it where it is so as I do not have to 
keep typing it in. Tried
# Storage directory for newly created packages
# By default they will be stored at the default
# location fot the package type

PAK_DIR="/usr/src/OpenLinux"

but still asks.
