Re: [gentoo-alt] prefix-launcher failure

[Marshall McMullen]

No good, it failed after installing patch.  I'm guessing there is 
something messed up in my config or the versions of my installed
software if this isn't hitting anyone else.

Any other thoughts?

Well, I tried touching the two files it said were missing, and now it's proceeding along again. It fails on installing patch complaining that the "patch.extracted" and "patch.extracted" files are missing. Touching those allows patch to install. I hit the same problem with tar as well. Anyone else see a bug like this? 

Many thanks, 
Marshall

Sorry, that was woefully inadequate information, I apologize. 

The instructions I am following are at: 
http://prefix-launcher.wiki.sourceforge.net/howto+install+prefix+launcher 

Here's what I've done leading up to this error: 

$ tar -jxf prefix-launcher-1.1-fetched.tar.bz2

any ideas ? 

I do appreciate any help. 

Thanks,

Marshall, 
You would get more help if you also included what instructions you 
were following and what command caused this. Simply stating the error 
won't allow anyone to help you very easily. Please include more 
details with your posts. In this case, we would also need to know what 
you did so far (ie. downloaded the package, untar'd it, etc) I got 
prefix-launcher working on AIX just fine. Are you sure you followed 
the instructions correctly?
