[vbox-dev] PATH_OUT

[Antonio Augusto (Mancha)]

I was messing around with VBOx 1930 today, and was trying to build it
(on a Linux host) to a specific directory.
I've found out the PATH_OUT environment variable, and decided to try
it, hoping that the binaries/libraries would be put on this directory:
export PATH_OUT=/home/mancha/tmp/vbox-svn/vbox-bin/

But, when i set  the variable i get the following error (The "leaving
directory" and  "nothing  to be done for" messages have been
translated by me, from Portuguese)

--------------------

Without setting the PATH_OUT enverything compiles flawless.
Is this a build bug or i can't set the output dir in OSE ?

Cheers,
