Hi, I just updated my local installation of Orca from svn trunk with no problems (on Ubuntu Intrepid). I would suggest that you rerun the autogen.sh script again and make sure the --prefix is input correctly. If the prefix command takes, the installation should have nothing to do with the /usr/local tree--that path should be created under your local target directory. good luck, dave On 04/11/2009 04:28 PM, Storm Dragon wrote: > Hi, > I was installing the latest trunk of Orca.
