(sucks for me because I'm about to distribute something at work that instructs the user to install netpbm, and then says its almost certain to work... hmm, what now?) thanks a lot... by the way, what's happening to netpbm these days? is it beginning to evolve once again? (I had the impression that it reached a real stable/mature form) -Peter Weisz To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
