Probably some Launchpad script needs '-p' added to it: then everyone's needs would be met.

I'll only need this if things go wrong after I've tried building something. At that point I prefer to use 'ls -ltr' instead of going to a web page. But I am sure I am in an small minority, so this comment can be ignored! > > Apologies to Matthew for raising an apparently unfounded concern. > > Hey, it's not unfounded; it _happened_.

Well, I did not record anything when it happened, and when someone else reported a manpath problem I thought I remembered something similar happening earlier. So the most likely explanation is that my flawed memory generated a false alarm! (My brain filled up some years ago.) my current ctwm % ctwm -version 3.8.2-post has so far been doing exactly what I expect on Fedora 20. (Unlike Firefox 29!) Cheers. Aaron
