Dunno if you know, but mrproper can corrupt things. i always use make clean. :) sl ===== ************************** In cyberspace nobody can hear you scream. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Can it, i have never seen or heard of that problem, in any case you have to use make mrproper when you install a new kernel source otherwise things like symlinks to /usr/include are not created. > i always use make clean. :) That will not help when installing a new kernel source. If you look into the kernel source top dir Makefile you will see that "clean" only removes an amount of unwanted configureation *.h files, mrproper removes logfiles, files preceeded with a . (as in) .config, removes old symlinks and recreates them + much much more. And on another note if your statement were true, i am convinced that a problem of that magnitute would be fixed long before we the end user even saw it.

As far as I can see from reading the makefiles, and from looking at the output when it's actually run, make mrproper does not create any symlinks. Old libcs (pre version 6) needed symlinks from /usr/include into the kernel include files, but that's obsolete with glibc, and tends to cause more problems than it solves. > > i always use make clean. :) > That will not help when installing a new kernel source. > If you look into the kernel source top dir Makefile you will see that "clean" > only removes an amount of unwanted configureation *.h files, mrproper removes > logfiles, files preceeded with a .

Plus, new tarballs of kernel sources are supposed to be clean and mrproper to begin with. Anyway, if you want a really clean source tree, make distclean is more thorough, as it gets rid of patch(1) related detritus as well, which mrproper has a habit of leaving behind.
