Did you copy the entire PKGDIR heirarchy? It normally looks something like: |
15 |
|
16 |
$PKGDIR/All/glib-1.2.10-r5.tbz2 |
17 |
... |
18 |
$PKGDIR/dev-libs/glib-1.2.10-r5.tbz2 -> ../All/glib-1.2.10-r5.tbz2 |
19 |
|
20 |
If you just copied the 'All' directory, without the symlinks, this |
21 |
could account for the behavior you are seeing. |
