With my current modifications, you can do %install -S /usr/src/usr.bin.xinstall/install.1 /usr/share/man/man1 and create a symlink. This frees up about 3.5MB, and there is no gzipping done. If you want to free an additional 2.5 to 3 MB, then add a `-z' options. %install -S -z /usr/src/usr.bin.xinstall/install.1 /usr/share/man/man1 This creates a symlink pointing at a gzipped install.1 in the src tree. -- Steven G.
