Bingo.

RE> checkflist is guaranteed to fail for me, as my $DESTDIR has all kinds

Same boat, here.

I'd like it if there were an easy way (read: "a make target") which would
enable me to regenerate my flist according to what I have built, -or- a way
to generate a new flist AND tell the build procedure to use that one instead.

*sigh* so off to look into this am I.

RE> Having checkflist do that (for someone) is good, as it makes sure that
