So, I am dumb. Problem is, I don't know what it is that I don't know.
Every once in a while compiling xenocara, I get a fatal error when
dealing with kdrive. I've looked for emails talking about this and
haven't found anything. I've gone over release(8) and think I'm
OK.
What's frustrating is that this error comes and goes. Sometimes
for months at a time things are OK. I've resorted to getting a new
copy of xenocara when this happens, which is dumb.
I'm using the anoncvs server at spacehopper.org.
Since others aren't complaining about this it must be me. So then,
how am I shooting myself (this time) ? Clue sticks? Error below.
tnx, STeve Andre'
