I've not seen that, but then again, being USian, "plain 7-bit ASCII" it my standard working set. I naturally have UTF-8 on, but don't actually see it that much. > I can't believe my memory is getting so bad, but pan does support utf8, > right?

Thanks for mentioning /that/. I hadn't done either that or python- updater in awhile. I guess I should. (FWIW, someone just posted a proposal on the gentoo-dev list suggesting a project to combine revdep- rebuild, python-updater, and perl-cleaner, plus any other modules that may be thought necessary, into one. I really like that idea as I routinely run revdep-rebuild but seldom run the others. If they were all taken care of with a single command...) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
