Nope. A massive list of _souce_ dependancies isn't a problem in any way... Happily, it looks like the source-dependancies on the package are correct, too. I was going to check that in a pbuilder some time, but your result gives me a little confidence boost. -- Paul "TBBle" Hampson Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) [EMAIL PROTECTED] On a sidewalk near Portland State University someone wrote `Trust Jesus', and someone else wrote `But Cut the Cards'. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
