Like I said it was not intended as a troll but just a statement as to increased barrier to entry in getting more drakx/part-time drakx hackers. > yes it is!

Well, he has not _ignored_ them, but not much as been done beyond the "well it works here" part. I can understand the reluctance to deal with a "single report" type of bug, but there is something in there that is causing some sort of problem with hanging (and once it starts, usually upon entering a given website it's usually quite reproducable) as much as a corner case as it is. > You can try using urpmi --root /the_dir ... I may try this. This might be the only way (short of an actual install, which I cannot do due to my disk being all LVMed up) to get a system that does not have a _lot_ of unused libs hanging around. b. -- Brian J.
