On that note, it turned out SuSE 10.0's Python configuration did not have a /usr/local site-packages directory, forcing all 3rd party Python libraries to be installed into /usr. I reported it, and it got fixed! https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=149809 Actually, is there a Wiki page or something that lists all the problems different distributions have? There's a page that lists what distributions can do to fix their /usr/local problems: http://plan99.net/autopackage/What_can_distributions_do_to_fix_broken/usr/local_support ...but is there a page that actually lists different distributions and their issues (not just /usr/local related)? -- Karl Pietrzak [EMAIL PROTECTED]
