I have made enquiries upstream and there are some suggestions as to how to alleviate this issue (most of which can't be done in Lenny). There may be some minor things I can do to alleviate the problem. One change that I have made which will go into the next version is to only have a single run of semodule. This drops the configure time on an AMD64 system with 64M of RAM from 7m0.876s to 6m40.407s. It's only a 5% benefit, but still worth having. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Blog http://www.coker.com.au/sponsorship.html Sponsoring Free Software development -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
