Before running 'make install', 'touch' a file. I call mine "instdate". Then run make install. Then run: find ${PREFIX} -newer ./instdate -print This will print out a listing of the files that were just installed.. then strip ${PREFIX} off the front of each line (use sed or somesuch), and you got yourself a PLIST. --- Donald Burr <dburr@POBoxes.com> - Ask me for my PGP key | PGP: Your WWW HomePage: http://DonaldBurr.base.org/ ICQ #1347455 | right to Address: P.O.
