Sorry for cross-list posting... Actually, this is an old error which I saw on all new installs for quite some time. For example: ----- [2014-02-14 19:46] [PACMAN] installed shadow (4.1.5.1-7) [2014-02-14 19:46] [ALPM-SCRIPTLET] /tmp/alpm_p51CHp/.INSTALL: line 6: install: command not found [2014-02-14 19:46] [PACMAN] installed util-linux (2.24.1-1) ----- Cheers, L. -- Leonid Isaev GPG key fingerprint: C0DF 20D0 C075 C3F1 E1BE 775A A7AE F6CB 164B 5A6D
