Hello Michael.<br><br>I must say I was in your shoes a few weeks back.<br><br>Regarding your problems I have a few empirical advices.<br>1-install python 244 or python 251; this will clear most build errors with okl4-152.<br><br>2-I found problems with the GUI based File Roller (the problem with 0 byte files and empty folders not being extracted)<br><br>I prefer using tar xvzf in the command line on the nicta recommended tool-chain, python 244 and okl4-152. I think the elfadorn error is due to you using FIle Roller on the tarball of python244.<br><br>Gabi Voiculescu<br><br><b><i>"Michael P.
