Hi all, Could anyone get me up to speed on what packages have incompatibilities with the Little CMS version 2.x engine? Thanks! -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.24] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 11:43:01 up 22:47, 1

Hi all, I would like to complement everyone involved who has been working on the BLFS project for the last couple of years. You all have done an outstanding job. I could not believe how few Trac tickets there were. I saw many of them closed for Overcome by Events. I thought that was really
