That's not an exact answer, but it may be usefull anyway. Checkinstall is a good tool to keep a track of installed software. When you make install, it monitors installed files and generate a corresponding packet that you can easily remove afterward (a kind of uninstall a la windows). I cannot find it on debian anymore, but you can compile it and use it to install itself. Cedric -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
