Apparently, the patch for the -C option to install was written many years ago and never merged in coreutils and was eventually dropped. The version RH shipped with RHEL4 includes this patch (have a look at the src rpm). Most likely, RH dropped it in RHEL5 for lack of it being maintained, merged and/or incompatible. It was never an officially supported feature of coreutils. -- Justin Cook _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
