Hi,

You only have to type =E2=80=98make=E2=80=99, nothing more.  =E2=80=98boots=
trap=E2=80=99 and =E2=80=98configure=E2=80=99
only need to be invoked the first time.

I think =E2=80=98make=E2=80=99 is behaving as expected here, I don=E2=80=99=

mysterious here.

Yeah, I think we should try to keep issues focused.  The issues you
reported are all important, but we need to boil them down to specific
problems we can address.

Thank you,
