Its not a big problem for me because I am running current so I did know about these things. I just thought that a make world should cater for that. (Anybody going from a release to current will have this problem.) I just wanted to point out to Jordan that it won't fix the problem if you add install to the tools target. At least install and rpcgen should be compiled before the includes target is done. John -- John Hay -- John.Hay@csir.co.za
