I think you misunderstand. The point of this... MAKE_FLAGS = INSTALL='/usr/bin/install -c' \ INSTALL_PROGRAM='/usr/bin/install -c -s -m 555' \ INSTALL_DATA='/usr/bin/install -c -m 644' ... is to override these INSTALL* commands during the build (!) stage, so there aren't any -o or -g flags that would require root. This is *not* about the fake install. Edd, drop the -s from INSTALL_PROGRAM. We don't want to strip(1) there. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber na...@mips.inka.de
