Obviously, if the problem is FreeBSD specific you cannot reasonable expect an upstream maintainer and or developer to invest much time in providing a solution. That should rest with the FreeBSD developers. However, if the problem can be proven to not be FreeBSD specific, then a vigorous effort should be made to get the upstream developers to correct the problem. I believe it is obvious that the more documentation we can supply identifying the problem and proving where the problem lies would be most beneficial. In either case, there are all ready too many programs that either don't work or don't work correctly in FreeBSD; ie, "/print/acroread9" that should be corrected. I seriously question how much effort is being put into the resolution of such problems. Playing the "blame game", then sitting back and waiting for the other fellow to blink is never going to accomplish much. -- Jerry ✌ kde-freebsd.u...@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
