This is a good time to mention my LSB testing page. I've been running the test suites and filing bugs (on the test suites and debian) http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/lsbtest/current/ As the page says, one of the goals is to for woody users to be able to see a consise list of every place woody deviates from the LSB. I need to run a newer version of the test suite and regenerate the page, that will happen sometime this week. -- see shy jo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
