The former I'm > unsure about. What is the more important error here - the undefined > reference or the nonrepresentable section? The __init_array_* error is blocking openssh, which we actually use. The nonrepresentation error is blocking xulrunner, which blocks gcj-4.1 and a host of other things (five are dep-wait right now). I think xulrunner can be installed manually though. (And I'm currently building gcj-4.1 on vivaldi.) Pick one, I guess. -- Stephen R. Marenka If life's not fun, you're not doing it right! <stephen@marenka.net>
