you can of course use it on your LM distro without problem, but IMHO,
anything that doesn't come with source here sucks...the only exception now
i beleive is netscape, considering that amaya is not good enough, and
mozilla isn't stable enough to replace netscape, and that lynx is console-
based ...
i vote against including binary only stuff here. isn't this the point of
some distributions after all? to build a proprietary free operating system ..
