Perhaps I didn't explain myself well. All the core packages *and* all the add-on packages that are optional dependencies of the core packages have now been updated. I can't help it that you are using downloaded SVN and rendering yourself. I thought for sure that anyone that would be doing this would have at least read the ChangeLog where this would all have been explained. Dan, understand, what you are looking at has *not even been rendered once* yet on Belgarath and is available on the mirrors. In a few hours after Belgarath *renders for the first time* all the updates I've done, it will be that the core packages and *all* add-on packages that the core uses will have been updated. You are working against a highly-moving target. That's why I said you should svn update and render every few minutes. Things should be settled after the first Belgarath render. Only add-on packages that don't factor into the core will need updating. If, as you say, gedit needs a tweak, then you will have to figure it out yourself, as I simply haven't got that far yet. So, to make my point, please don't write in to say that an add-on package hasn't been updated yet, or that the download URL may be wrong. It is just that I haven't got to it yet. Patches to update the add-ons are welcome. :-) I've already got gnome-meeting, nautilus-cd-burner and gnome-media done, just haven't updated the book yet. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 00:40:01 up 16 days, 9:04, 3 users, load average: 0.01, 0.05, 0.28 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
