Hey Wim, I will soon find out everything with all your help. I am not
against using an installer, but what it does is, it takes its own time and
course installing, while I have to keep staring and know nothing. I will
eventually do it if I think it is enough to try it on my own....
Thanks for the inputs...that did help as now I know that I will have to do
separate builds for all the different versions of libs....
I will continue to know more through you and OvermindDL1
Acknowledgments,
Bhushan
