That'd be better for me, of course. I woke up my IA64 system with some Debian thing on one of its disks, and that was less painful. Automatic detection of OpenSSL might be nice, too. I don't know how difficult that might be. > If libiconv.so requires libgcc_s.so.1, it should probably have been > added to the "LIBICONV" substitution variable.
