FPEs on alpha are almost always caused by not building with -mieee. With gcc-4.0, upstream has again decided, for God knows what reason, that -mieee should not be enabled by default on alpha, which is a regression versus gcc-3.3, so libgsl0 will need to be explicitly built with CFLAGS=-mieee on alpha. (bogofilter itself already does this.) -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world. [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.debian.org/
