I alwasy install Netscape with it because I don't want to wait for the debian install package. The install script for b7 is pretty good. It asks you where you wan't to put it. I use the default, /usr/local/netscape. Then it goes and installs. It you have an older version sitting there it keeps all the old stuff intact and just renames them, I guess this would be good if for some reason the new version doesn't work and you wan't to go back to the old one without reinstalling it. But I didn't want to waste the disk space so I just deleted to old one, ran the install script and all it good. I also made a soft link in /usr/local/bin to the netscape executable in /usr/local/netscape. Now I I wan't to uninstall it is about 3 commands harder than if I had installed the DEB. cd to /usr/local and then rm -r netscape then cd to /usr/local/bin and rm netscape and I am done, besides the .netscape files in user directorys. But I think you can trust it. And the deb doen't make it much easier. - ------------------------- E-Mail: Travis Cole <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.methow.com/~tcole -- Get my Public Key here Date: 03-Aug-97 Time: 12:42:08 640Kb should be enough for anybody Bill Gates - ------------------------- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3a Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBM+TgnmgYC2+RaorhAQG3TwP/V5f1yAs7vFecQH+4kh/gEBl44Aos7esP TjdKBLhOZ1M2jwaLQgrZQlb/Fdg744FmXGLdL5wo3DO3eQ6VSYOy1inyN8ya/UbV 6BE7W7Q8rl30AuhkY86QC7i2aeW0RSg2i53rk48sT0nuZeFd2RqGLGNJwXhtLD1c 1/OCXKN0Uj0= =8PGf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
