Huh me too. first glance I can't see what the deal is. I simply did
wget url and moved it. Of course I also had to make it executable.
here is the orig line 56:
[ -x "$FC_CACHE" ] HOME=/ "$FC_CACHE" $d
here is one with the change I made to get it to work (added &&)
[ -x "$FC_CACHE" ] && HOME=/ "$FC_CACHE" $d
Is there some environment var. that is letting this work on some boxes
and not others?
FYI this is on a ppc box although I can't see why that would make a
difference.
