My suggestion: download the source and compile. That is what Slackware folks do. That way you are not tied to someone else's update schedule. It puts you more in control. The drill is not complicated: download unzip tar xvf cd directory ./configure make make install done. It's a slow process but often not as slow as waiting for someone else to do the packaging bit. -- John Culleton Able Indexing and Typesetting Precision typesetting (tm) at reasonable cost.
