Thanks a lot, it did help resolve the compilation issues I had, to start with. But the naming and packaging coventions do introduce an avoidable pain. Finally I am getting stuck at compiling certain applications for which source tar.gz is available. But after pushing through initial hurdles I realise that this source will compile only on debian and not on fedora. Huh thats what all migration stuff seems to be all about. I am not a professional, so would be forced to maintain a dual-boot/virtual setup. anand _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22-24, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
