Thanks, it doesn't look like it is upstream, so almost certainly isn't in Debian. I'm curious to know what the hold-up is with getting it incoporated upstream.

As a rule, we really like patches to be upstream before putting them into Debian. -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
