you do not need root access to test menu. Just build and run it on paer, it will likely die immediately. > So I would ask you to test this package further and report if you have some > success. > More generally I would like your opinion about the request in #169271. The problem with menu is that c++ exceptions is not well-supported with g++-3.0. You might have better luck with g++-3.2... but that precludes it from going into woody. randolph
