Okay, just for something to do (like I needed the distraction!), I got kdar v2.0.7 (the latest stable version) building with libdar 2.3.5. It seems to work okay, but I have some questions out to the libdar developers list about some of the new stuff. The rpm in the 10.3 repo is for 2.3.4 but I think the changes from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5 are minor and should affect kdar in any way. But I'm not really sure where to go from here. The v2 branch hasn't been touched in a couple of years. There seems to be some work being done on a new v3. I suppose I could look into submitting the changes I've made to the v2 branch into the Sourceforge CVS? Or does someone at suse want to take my changes and do something with them to create a new rpm? -- Jonathan Arnold (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) Linux Brain Dump - Linux Notes, HOWTOs and Tutorials: http://www.linuxbraindump.org Daemon Dancing in the Dark, an Open OS weblog: http://freebsd.amazingdev.com/blog/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
