I wasn't aware of the word servent before, but it seems to be in common use for this. Gtk-gnutella looks fully detailed, and you seem to know how to use it. Wpa_supplicant is reputedly useful (i.e. mentioned from time to time on -support : I don't have wifi except on my netbook), and the page looks good except for the lack of description, LFS-7.0 tag, and space/time : I'm currently going through the gnome-3 packages to see which need one or other of description and space/time, so I'm tuned to notice that ;-) This year has been a shock to me - I favoured reducing the number of packages, but here I am preparing to merge another 75 into the book. On that basis, another two or twentytwo is neither here nor there. I suppose some of it is just the way that the number of packages grows. Happy GNU Year. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
