[Gllug] Pipe question

[Adrian McMenamin]

How can I do this?

I am mucking about with buildroot - a set of scripts to automate cross
compiling - which has a bug in it (which the maintainers say they don't
have the time to fix) which means that configuration changes don't
always result in proper rebuilds.

So I am doing things like this...

adrian at bossclass:~/buildroot$ locate libpthread.so
/lib/tls/libpthread.so.0
/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0
/lib/libpthread.so.0
/usr/lib/libpthread.so
/usr/lib/nptl/libpthread.so
/usr/lib64/libpthread.so
/home/adrian/buildroot/build_sh4/staging_dir/lib/libpthread.so.0
/home/adrian/buildroot/build_sh4/staging_dir/lib/libpthread.so
/home/adrian/buildroot/build_sh4/root/lib/libpthread.so.0
/home/adrian/buildroot/toolchain_build_sh4/uClibc/lib/libpthread.so.0
/home/adrian/buildroot/toolchain_build_sh4/uClibc/lib/libpthread.so
/tftpboot/192.168.61.55/lib/libpthread.so.0
/tftpboot/192.168.61.55/lib/usr/libpthread.so
/lib64/libpthread.so.0

followed by

adrian at bossclass:~/buildroot$ ls
-lia /home/adrian/buildroot/build_sh4/staging_dir/lib/libpthread.so.0
13816042 lrwxrwxrwx  1 adrian adrian 20 2006-01-22
17:08 /home/adrian/buildroot/build_sh4/staging_dir/lib/libpthread.so.0
-> libpthread-0.9.28.so

To check whether a file has been rebuilt. How can I join the two up with
a pipe? I cannot seem to find a way to do it, and I admit my shell
knowledge is poor.
