As I stated in a previous post, the actual problem is that the "-s" flag is passed to install on the second line from the bottom and it tries to strip svod which is text and can't be stripped. This is with Speak Freely 7.2. Isn't the CVS version based on 7.1? Anyway, I removed the "-s" flag from that line and the man pages installed. I had also removed the part about half duplex and added the -DNEEDED_LINEAR option.
