Argh. Reading the -devel mesg you linked to, I take it that this software is using stuff which is not exposed in libpcre as a public function. The correct solution would be for the upstream software to be adjusted such that a) it did not use bits of pcre that are not exposed in the library b) it was feasible to link to an external pcre (perhaps by default) -- Jon Dowland http://alcopop.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
