That's what I meant; I was getting another migraine.  So rather than Yea
or Nay, it's more productive to complain about what amounts to a typo?

My system, my rules.  Isn't that right?

For the same reason I can't run Firefox-35 on my old (B)LFS-6.3
system!  Try to go too far and dependency hell will trip one up. Look,
once and for all, I have always been a computer USER.  I have
computers, I've soldered them all up from baggies of individual parts
and bare boards, because I want to USE them for my own purposes, not
because anything about them is important in and of itself!  I'd still
be using CP/M if it would do what I want now.  I'm not doing this for
nerd points!

Screw it, I got 2.7.5 from OSL last night--it's faster for me to give it
a go, than to wade through this gratuitous criticism.
