Partly, the weird packaging, and test failures, if I recall correctly, caused me to discount it. But I also think that on the rare occasions I tried to use it (mostly development-kernel problems, probably also when I've had problems in the nfs area) it was less than useful. That was with it installed non-suid. 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
