I fail to see what the problem is. I just did

Code: [Select]

tce-load -wi compiletc squashfs-tools-4.x
tar xf netcat-0.7.1.tar.bz2
cd netcat-0.7.1/
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
DESTDIR=/tmp/pkg/netcat make install
strip /tmp/pkg/netcat/usr/local/bin/netcat
mksquashfs /tmp/pkg/netcat ~/netcat.tcz
and ended up with a private extension.

So having installed surplus extensions (e.g. 'coreutils.tcz' and 'tcc.tcz') might not have helped, but should not have caused the reported problems. Mind you I might have downloaded a slightly different source archive (http://sourceforge.net/projects/netcat/files/netcat/0.7.1/netcat-0.7.1.tar.bz2).
