moon-buggy should be available as Debian package, was there a reason you
compiled it yourself?

I wanted to try building some packages. Well I actually built the
debian source packages. I didn't have a direct connection so I did

1) apt-get source on a GNU/Linux box
2) copied the sources to GNU/Hurd partition
3) Rebooted to GNU/Hurd and built from the source

My idea was to get familiarised with building packages on GNU/Hurd and
my final target was pango and gedit. But halfway through (didn't have
X built yet) I had to move from my place and the system is also gone
(I had taken my friends system). Now got to start from scratch.

Now I have a GNU snapshot from ams running on my old pc. Got to figure
out net connection.

Btw what is the status of gnome?

Cheers
Praveen
