Its the latest one on the gnu mirror so I'm somewhat confused here. Can you help me on this part? It seems as if this one add-on gets done it will be OK. I've TRied a google search and can not find a tar.gz source file for nss_db-2.2-4 or anything similar. Thanks for the help so far, your method is perfect, the key was finding the 10.40 gettext it seems to this point. George ===[George R.
