Hi Daniel, by Using; > make install; echo $?
It does indeed exit with a 0. Thanks. I don;' know how - but I completely missed the subversion directory that was created! I possibly, simply, assumed it was from trunk. I can also confirm from a dev-point of view, That trunk passes all tests via make check on my Mac too. Off to have a play! - thanks again. Gavin.
