OK, so removing some stuff was easy. However, an upgrade to the new version of festival would now put me in the following dilemma: Upon upgrade, the package would disown the /etc/init.d/festival file. Do I remove it upon upgrade? But what if users who have modified it don't want it to be removed? Thanks. Kumar -- Kumar Appaiah, 458, Jamuna Hostel, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai - 600 036
