I don't feel criticized by you and that is not my "counter-strike" response. Actually I criticize me. If you find any bad personal note in that message, please, be sure that it is a negative side effect of my poor English. I really just wanted to point out that there is no reason not to use "make install" and that was my only intention. If there is any blame it is pointed to me because I forgot about the better solution proposed by y= ou. I apologize if my email insulted you in anyway. --=20 Best regards, Daniel --=20 gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
