"My project" involves checking system rules on open source software (that means software distributed by gentoo). Hence, any project that calls install -s will be troublesome for me. Anyways, I really appreciate your help. In case you have any suggestions on how to get around the install -s problem, that would be great! Sorav -- gentoo-portage-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
