It's not upstream or Red Hat issue, what I want to say that it's just not cutting edge try. And I can understand including libgmp is not good for minimal install, but 528kb is not huge, coreutils is 26 times bigger than it. It's an allowable error, IMHO. -- Regards, Hideki Yamane henrich @ debian.or.jp/org http://wiki.debian.org/HidekiYamane
