Hi James - Thanks for the update. I do not have any active cave mapping projects right now, so for my test machine I am removing Survex and proceeding with Fedora 35. When a new Survex package is available, I will give it a try. There are other reasons for me to hold off Fedora 35 upgrades on my production systems for a week or two.
