Thanks, that explains the significance of 2.62 -- but it doesn't actually explain the problem; it just says "In order to build it, I would have to accept GPLv3 (which is not acceptable)". _Why_ is the GPLv3 "not acceptable", when the GPLv2 was? What does "I would have to accept the GPLv3 [to build it]" even mean? The GPL applies to redistribution, not use. I'm still mystified. Thanks, -Miles -- Cat is power.
