It was just a guess. Since all packages were updated in 2003, libintl and libintl1 are from 2001, and libintl2 from 2002 and 2003, I thought it you needed libintl, the latter would be the requirement. But you're right. Here nothing returns it. Actually, I don't do a full install, and the only things still using libintl1 are: textutils grep findutils. Guess what ? They're all from 2002. And the only packages with a requirement for gettext are mod_php4 and XFree86-base. -- http://www.pervalidus.net/contact.html
