Mark,

If we assume this is a mislabeled dp4, I suppose it's possible there are problems resolved in the actual dp5 that we can't experience just yet, but the issues he's talking about here have plagued him for a few releases and do not exist on my system. This is troublesome from many perspectives. This, along with other issues experience by Linux users lately, does suggest a simple solution to identify dependency issues for Linux would be highly useful.

Release announcements have not been entirely consistent, with at least one recent release being announced on one list much earlier than on the other, and I am in agreement with those who think RunRev needs to find a better solution to pre-staging than the current implementation if we need to be cautious about downloading what are publicly linked versions.

I have no interest whatsoever in the headaches of attempting to build from source, thank you very much.

Well; if you really want to "Pile on the fun" try doing it on Linux PPC.

I don't understand why everything I have ever built from source has turned out a workable product at the end; except for Livecode, that just seems to throw dependency requests and all sorts of
other things around.

Best stick with the builds from the download page.

Richmond.
