you could complain to the list maintainer. Or perhaps write an awk

If you aren't on multilib, you _really_ don't want lib64 in your

Thanks for the tip,
One problem fixed: found xft.pc in /usr/X11R6/lib64/pkgconfig and needed to

asethetically-pleasing, and bloat-free alternative to Gnome and Kde.
4.4has many new features over version
4.2 which is currently featured in the BLFS book, and it is well worth
upgrading. If you already enjoy 4.2, you will love 4.4.
