The previous package versions were statically linked to libiw. I switched to using shared objects and per the mandrake lib policy split them off. This allows other tools that use these libraries to be installed. Use urpmi to install and it'll handle these depedency issues for you. That and read the changelog for the RPM. -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org "If you're not making any mistakes, you're flat out not trying hard enough." - Jim Nichols
