Hmm.. strange. I admit, I have GNU install from fileutils in my path, it is not standard Solaris program. But I've just tested standard install found in /usr/ucb (do ``which install'' to figure where your install is located) and it worked for me. It returned /usr/sbin/install What now?
Now, that means it's not the right "install" program. You should be using the one in /usr/ucb. In fact, if you do a "file /usr/sbin/install" or even "more /usr/sbin/install", you will find that it is actually a shell script, and is not meant to do what /usr/ucb/install does at all. MPlayer probably should not be installed by the system administrator in a global location anyway. If you did all this as a normal user, you probably would have had no problem installing. -- Bryan Chan scorpio@acm.org
