Liquid the easy way...

[René Bourion]

Sorry to have bothered you: I have found the answer.

I realized that my mosfet-liquid directory was located on a hfs partition.
hfs apparently not being 100 percent reliable, I made a new download to a
place on a regular Linux partition, and now it works; no problem any more.

Thanks for your attention anyway.
