Here is my .profile: This may not be directly related, but you are making life hard for yourself installing things where they shouldn't be. It looks like you've been reading the (very very) old packaging instructions. Things are no-longer installed under /var/lib/install. Instead they are installed in the usual location /usr/bin and so on. This makes life easier when building things and also means the end user can update the binaries that come pre-installed. Simon
