Oh, whoops, no I won't -- it doesn't seem to depend on system-xfree86-43: Information about 2966 packages read in 3 seconds. The following package will be installed or updated: mozilla-browser-xft2 The following 3 additional packages will be installed: mozilla-dev xfree86 xfree86-shlibs Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n I guess I can tweak that info file too (like the pango one)? But if it is getting this complicated, I hesitate to mess any further without knowing what I'm doing... -- Viv > thanks! > -- Viv > > > -- > > Alexander K.
