I think Chris Demetrious put the include headers on agate. The problem is that some of the includes are only in the bin01 distribution. What I do is: # rm -rf /usr/src/ /usr/include/ # cd / # cat /usr/tmp/bin01.* | zcat | cpio -idamu 'usr/include*' # cat /usr/tmp/src01.* | zcat | cpio -idmau /dev/MAKEDEV and /usr/share/man/* should be restored too, I guess. You should be able to do these by hand. -AM
