Actually, it's more a problem of the CVS server not maintaining the proper dates on the files used in the build process. It has to do with relative dates (which files are newer) than absolute dates. If I do 'touch *' before building the tarball, that takes care of the problem. I prefer not to do that though, as I feel that files that haven't changed should keep their timestamps. -- Tom Collins - [EMAIL PROTECTED] QmailAdmin: http://qmailadmin.sf.net/ Vpopmail: http://vpopmail.sf.net/ Info on the Sniffter hand-held Network Tester: http://sniffter.com/

Re: [vchkpw] Troubles running make [SOLVED]
have you tried: touch * in the root of the source tree? -Jeremy Thanks for this tip Jeremy; it solved my problem. Only thing is that I dont understand why. I've looked at man touch, and I know what it does, but dont understand why and how it solved my problem(?). Maybe you can clue me in? If it is too off-topic for this list, maybe you can explain it too me (briefly) by emailing me direcly? Thanks and sorry for the impatience :) Patrick

Surely you can put that together with the information you got from 'man touch' and know why what you did fixed the problem. -Jeremy -- Jeremy Kitchen ++ Systems Administrator ++ Inter7 Internet Technologies, Inc.
