I'm not sure what you're saying. Are you asking for help? If so, be more specific. What doesn't work? How doesn't it work? Debian-based systems are miles ahead of things like windows or macos in terms of deployment and management of installed software, but ONLY if you actually use the packages. If you go out and start installing your own dependencies behind the back of the package manager, you get no benefits. dima _______________________________________________ Perldl mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.jach.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/perldl
