Right? The problem is the second "D". No one wants to develop for DSPAM.

Would the Debian package be in the same area? I mean function wise. The install part from the Gentoo Ebuild is not that hard. But then the configuration wizard is what makes installing DSPAM on Gentoo a no brainer. Would the Debian package require something like that as well? Does the Debian packing system offers such options to add an configuration part for DSPAM inside the package? > Cheers, > Julien > -- Kind Regards from Switzerland, Stevan Bajić ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
