Thanks, I'll have it fixed in the next snapshot.

I can't replicate it here. You can see in the attached image that I get 
a full list. Does the log contain anything enlightening? Also, are you 
building the gtk/x86 version too, or perhaps motif/x86 or gtk/amd64?

Another way to do this would be like that (after commenting out the 
CONFLICTS line of course):

env PREFIX=/var/tmp/test make install

What puzzles me is the following change, though. What does 
--strip-components do? I can't seem to find it in tar(1), gtar(1) or 
libarchive(3).

Thanks,
