How do you tell it to use Python 2 ? I've been installing 3 solely for LO-4. As I said privately, I install all of the above *except* OpenLDAP and unixODBC and I seen no reason to use them on a regular desktop. For a company-wide installation, maybe. One other question - is this version a release, or is it labelled as alpha or beta on the splash screen ? I noted the label on the current version, perhaps that is why there are so many xml errors in the languages - but it does seem to work ok. > > Thanks, Ken, for discussing these matters with me. > > BTW: > > Bruce, is ok to use my system with corrected glibc for development and > tag 7.4?

With *only* glibc changed, and that by reverting one thing to how it used to be in 2.17, I don't think there is any likelihood of problems. Still got to test (I'm building LFS at the moment), but my guess is we should just keep on tagging. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
