Actually, sudo is fine for SlackBuilds, provided your user has /sbin<br>
and /usr/sbin in $PATH. I wrote the git-tools SlackBuild, and I just<br>
built it with sudo, with no errors.<br>
<br>
To the OP: no idea why your chmod doesn't have -h option. I'm looking<br>
at "man chmod" and I see:<br>
<br>
    -h, --no-dereference<br>
        affect each symbolic link, rather than the referent<br>
<br>
Slackware 15.0 and -current both have the -h option to chmod, so your<br>
chmod must be something else.<br>
<br>
Check & see if you've done something like install busybox and put its<br>
binaries in $PATH before /bin and /usr/bin, maybe? As your user, what<br>
does "which chmod" say? Should be "/usr/bin/chmod".<br>
