Ah, the marvels, once again, of distros and package managers that don't do
dependancy resolution for you!
On my "accursed" distro, I never have to worry about this <grin>. I might want
a different approach on a server, but for a PODU (plain ole desktop user), it's
great that when I install a package everything necessary is installed.
My computer does (or did) run the "accursed" distro, unfortunately the
manufacturer used the screwed up capacitors on that board and now is
down for a while. I'm using my sons computer (PII-300) while he's away
(St.Catherines Ontario). This puppy has Slackware 9.1 and the libs I was
installing are not included in the distro. Before my system went down, I
had all this stuff compiled and installed without a glitch. I guess
thats the draw-back of that "accursed" distro <G>
