Funny. I was under the impression that the buildds _did_ leave these packages installed, and that was one of the things that pbuilder could test that the buildds don't, that build-depends are complete and sufficient. I'm sure it's been suggested that the buildds remove the extra packages after each run, but that is considered too inefficient, and the buildds are not _expected_ to pick up all build-depends bugs. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, MCSE 8th year CompSci/Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) [EMAIL PROTECTED] "No survivors?
