MANY THANKS Brian, I will try that tonight.

I guess I didn't express myself fully, I think that a minimal and a maximum
install should both be provided. That way, if you are not a guru and run
into problems installing, and you do want to install THAT program, you
could drop back to the full install. I have been to DLL Hell more than once
and prefer the Linux solution. What I'm saying that if Linux ever gets to
the desktop this problem MUST be addressed. Mr or Mrs DesktopUser is NOT
going to put up with installations like this, it will be "To hell with
this, I'll use some other program", or "This Linux sucks, back to Windows".
I know that including all materials necessary  will work, I installed
Applix, Star Office, Wordperfect, bluefish, nedit and Igloo FTP Pro without
encountering the problem of unresolved dependencies. 
Jim

PS Nedit rocks!!
