Re: [ft-devel] ft2build.h being regenerated each time.

I have archlinux installed and it seems to exhibit the same behaviour. However, you are correct, on Mac OS X, it seems that the default /usr/bin/install is BSD based.

The man page for install on archlinux, e.g. GNU install, says that -c is ignored. If I specify -p, it works as expected. -C by itself doesn't seem to preserve mtime, but does seem to avoid copying the file if it is identical.

You can try building the GNU install program (or get it from macports or fink or some such) and adding the location to it to your path and try again.

I think the issue here might be related to the fact that Mac Os X uses the BSD install program, but Linux uses the GNU install program.

I think that you will find this issue everywhere.  But maybe I'm
wrong.
