The problem goes away if I comment out the "die" statement on line 942 from the "Configure" file: else { * #die "target already defined - $target (offending arg: $_)\n" if ($target ne "");* $target=$_; } Is the above safe and the correct fix? Does the *$target=$_; *line (#943) also need to be commented out? Best Regards, -Avery On 6/11/2015 2:56 PM, Avery A.
