Since the recent changes (what ever they might be) in the compiling tools you really need to be a software engineer and have great knowledge in the autoconf, m4, automake or whatever stuff... I don't have the time to learn this, in fact I don't want to bother with these things at all... Coders may love to fiddle with it, I just want it to work without _any_ hassles... There's no problems up to ML8.2 and as I suspect there's no problems in other distros either. Something isn't right when you need to patch softwares in order for them to compile on latest Mandrake... -- Regards // Oden Eriksson
