Will ligb++-2.7.x be debianized or do we have to grab that ourselves? I need it for my work. And I'd like to, if I can, do without the aout versions of gcc and friends and go to elf directly. You did a great job with these elf packages. I installed your new version earlier but they failed on c++ and on stone-old c stuff requiring termlib. -- Dirk.Eddelbuettel@qed.econ.queensu.ca http://qed.econ.queensu.ca/~edd
