Well I found my problem. We build all our versions of XFree86 using source code stored in Perforce (a branch to our devel tree that allows easy merging back/forth). As it turns out, Perforce does not seem to like filenames with an '@' symbol in them, and then never got checked into Perforce!! I will have to see if I can manually check those files into the machine, otherwise we will have a problem ;-(. What exactly are these files for? Is there any reason why they using the @ symbol in file names specifically? Regards, --- Kendall Bennett Chief Executive Officer SciTech Software, Inc.

Re: Install errors with 4.3.0 on RH7.3?
No responses to this question? I really would like to figure out why the build is not installing on this machine. Perhaps this is not the right forum and there is a better mailing list to ask these questions about build breaks?

However when I do a 'make install' I get errors about halfway through I think related to some @Aliases file or something. I have attached my install.log file. Can someone tell me what is wrong and how I can fix this to get the install to work properly? Regards, --- Kendall Bennett Chief Executive Officer SciTech Software, Inc.

Probably because that was the simplest way I could find, and it seems that whenever an error is found, the above string is always there ;-) It looks to me as if your make World failed (but kept going as it usually does) so install tried again and failed. I believe the make World succeeded just fine. I will grep with your error string tomorrow and see what I dig up (it is on a differetn hard disk to the one I am installing Linux distros on now in my test box ;-).

Well I am not checking the code out of CVS at all, but building from the raw tar.gz files unzipped on my system. Perhaps this file is in CVS but is missing from the source archives? I will check tomorrow and see what i can find out. Regards, --- Kendall Bennett Chief Executive Officer SciTech Software, Inc.
