I tried truss(1)ing the mtree process. But that's somewhat pointless with 550MB of /usr files and only 200MB of free disk space (truss will produce a complete line of text for every 1K of data read, and mtree seems to compute every checksum separately). That's when script(1) or "truss mtree 2> logfile" won't work. I guess I have to dig into setting up multilog from the daemontools package for this particular purpose. I hope to have the stderr tail of truss available, then. Maybe I can tell you soon which syscall results in the ENOENT(?) error. Am I really alone in seeing this erroneous message or am I one of very few people using mtree for more than a "make hierarchy"? I wouldn't think so. At least I hoped to have some users jumping in saying "me too, preferably under _these_ conditions" ... virtually yours 82D1 9B9C 01DC 4FB4 D7B4 61BE 3F49 4F77 72DE DA76 Gerhard Sittig true | mail -s "get gpg key" Gerhard.Sittig@gmx.net -- If you don't understand or are scared by any of the above ask your parents or an adult to help you.
