Actually, while you're at it, could we make Xen aware of LOCALVERSION, so you can 'make LOCALVERSION=_foo dist', and not only would you get custom kernels that can co-exist with other kernels (as already happens), but you also get xen-3.0-devel_foo.gz that can be installed nicely without overwriting other Xen builds you have. That would have made things much easier for me this week, and I suspect it would continue to do so. I suggest this would be additional to, and not replace, support for $prefix. -- Stop the infinite loop, I want to get off! http://surreal.istic.org/ Paraphernalia/Never hides your broken bones,/ And I don't know why you'd want to try:/ It's plain to see you're on your own. -- Paul Simon The documentation that can be written is not the true documentation.
