Brian, I was delighted when I read this message because I've been putting off trying Netscape 4.6 because of the netscape-base-4_14 issue. Well, there's more trouble in river city. The liburi-perl and libwww-perl packages in potato are newer than the ones you cite, and they run into the perl5 mess that's still settling out in potato. I'll CC this to netgod in the hopes that he'll add the appropriate packages to his WONDERFUL http://netgod.net/x/ site that will enable us to actually install the latest netscape in slink. And then there's RealAudio . . . ;-> Cheers, Pann -- What's All the Buzz About Linux? L I N U X .~. The Choice /V\ http://www.ourmanpann.com/linux/ of a GNU /( )\ Generation ^^-^^
