You can likely do without it. It's used mainly for very numerically intensive things... I believe the gimp-perl package depends on it, for instance. But, if nothing is depending upon it, you can safely remove it. I don't have it installed on several of my machines, I believe. -- Nathan Poznick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "A computer is like an Old Testament god, with a lot of rules and no mercy." - Joseph Campbell
