There is a small patch that was posted a while back that implemented a 'reinstall' target that can be applied to a fully-built tree to achieve this. If you want it, let me know. It doesn't apply to the -stable Makefile cleanly anymore (some parts have changed) but it is easy to see what needs to be changed to make this work. I use this on a regular basis to distribute -stable to a number of machines. > Greg -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] Collector of old Unix hardware.
