The LSB option on install is for installing the test suite for testing LSB compliance 
and is not required to be LSB compliant.  As for whether the D/L version is or not, I 
am not sure as I haven't read the latest spec, but since the ProSuite is a superset of 
the D/L version, unless something is not included with the D/L version that would be 
required for LSB compliance, one would expect that it is, too.

Speaking of which, what exactly is the deal with LSB comlpiance? The LSB
website says
that the ProSuite specifically is compliant. Does that mean the d/l
version is not?
Also I seem to remember LSB being a package category during the
installation of 9.
Do I remember correctly? If so, why is it an option and not automatic?
