Bleah -- but I tested this earlier. It worked...or at least I thought I was exercising the proper code path; I specifically wanted to make sure that cyclic dependencies were okay. I guess my earlier 'test' didn't really *test* what I thought it was testing...sorry for the trouble, folks. BUT: the dependency loop NEEDS to be there -- becuase those packages ARE mutually dependent. It's just that setup needs to traverse the loop only once and terminate. :-) --Chuck
