Subject: [kbd] [PATCH] Install fails due to attempt to apply "install -s" to a shell script
Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2008 09:36:55 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47BD8C87.4080702@comcast.net> (raw)

In 1.14 and 1.14.1wip, install fails with the following error:

install -s -m 0755 dumpkeys loadkeys showkey setfont showconsolefont setleds setmetamode kbd_mode chvt deallocvt psfxtable kbdrate fgconsole openvt mapscrn loadunimap unicode_start unicode_stop /usr/bin
strip: /usr/bin/unicode_start: File format not recognized
install: strip process terminated abnormally

The coreutils that is supplying install is version 6.10.  It is unknown to me whether other versions also fail.

The following patch corrects the problem.
