This is not supported. }The thing that they forget to tell you is that they changed the ./install }scripts from version 4 to version 5 from } }etc/install < installfiles } }to } }/etc/install installfiles. } }The /etc/install program works differently from the two version. Correct. But we've never documented the way etc/install works. We only document the way the ./install4gl, ./install4db, ./install4glrt, ./installesql etc work. The technique for using them hasn't changed. }Bit confusing when you first hit it. Look before you leap. Internal details may change at any time.
