I ended up forcing the ones that only had packing bump and then getting others like rpm in appropriate versions from cvs and (when needed) migrating and applying patches from the EFW devel/pool version to the newer sources. I seem to have a working devel box now, but I've only had time to build secondary things (apcupsd, etc) -- I haven't yet tried to rebuild the kernel. That's my Xmas project :) Igor ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Efw-user mailing list Efw-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/efw-user
