(on-list reply)

A factually incorrect statement has been made by Nico and with apology
to everybody on this list, I feel obligated to post a public rebuke.

No, there were no changes to my instructions since I originally posted
the link to this list.

The full history of changes is easy to see on the wiki history page:
http://www.triumf.info/wiki/DAQwiki/index.php?title=SLinstall&action=history

A suggestion that I posted a link to defective instructions then quietly
"improved" them I see as an attack on my professional integrity. I do stand
behind my words and behind my product.

(no, I do not expect to see a message from Nico about doctoring wiki history 
databases).

Yes. Please do some more checking. It is an explicit dependancy to the 
yum-autoupdate
rpm package. Why? Ask the authors, not me, I did not do any of it.
