If so, would we need a system-tex package? It was dropped on 10.5, after all, because the maintainer decided it was too much of a headache due to upstreams doing stuff with each update that broke his efforts. And the whole X11 experience on 10.5 has shown us how difficult it can be to deal with big packages that are outside of the Fink distribution. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
