Yes, I seem to recall someone else on the list explaining this.
Is is a temporary bug with hamm or is it just a new version
which is incompatible (and always will be) with the old one?
If the latter, it's not a hamm problem.

Fine. I just wanted to know what it is about hamm that you don't
like so far. The developers need to know what problems people
are having with the software and the packaging before it can be
fixed.
I started with Slackware 2.3, a couple of years ago. I upgraded
it by hand to ELF, effectively Slackware 3.0, eventually got sick
of the huge mess they called an OS and installed Debian 1.1.
Good move. :-)
