Re: trying to install gnome again

[Guillaume Dumoulin <gdumoulin wanadoo fr>]

Hello
My previous message was stupid since i was trying to open a directory 
with PICO !!!
But I tried what you told me and here are the results :

the same message

There arent any files in this directory :

[localhost:/sw/src/root-audiofile-0.2.1-2] root# ll
total 0
drwxr-xr-x   4 root     admin          92 Nov 28 10:21 .
drwxr-xr-x  70 root     admin        2336 Nov 28 10:21 ..
drwxr-xr-x   2 root     admin          24 Nov 28 10:21 DEBIAN
drwxr-xr-x   2 root     admin          24 Nov 28 10:21 sw

So should i search in /sw/src/audiofile-0.2.1-2 ?
There are tons of files in this directory !
Is it possible to search for these lines in many files at once with a 
special command or with pico ?
