My biggest problem right now is that of diff'ing a file, and spotting what changes I did, and what changes the package came with... Anyway, I'm really tired here. Please ignore this if it's really stupid, or someone else mentioned it in the beginning of the thread ;) -- Joachim Blaabjerg styx@SuxOS.org www.SuxOS.org
