Oh man.. these bugs, I once built LFS (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_From_Scratch) and later I built mane packages on SOURCEMAGE and then for many months I used Gentoo. I left building from source because of the (computation time + CPU Life + my time) it takes. Arch I found to be what I wanted. I have enchant 1.6 available for Arch Linux and I can build even a pacman package out of it too: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/enchant1.6/ But since I did not do any work :o) (mostly you did) and am pretty thankful for this. Since the whole point was about spell checking, I think I can put the text as gmail drafts, do all the spell checks and then can post through Pan on USENET. It would be better than keeping enchant 1 and 2 on my system and doing all the source level stuff. Once I used to be so much enthusiastic about this and even found some bugs in a well respected reference manual for a programming language too but now this age, I want to finish my work and use Open Source and Libre Software. -- http://uttre.wordpress.com/ https://lispmachine.wordpress.com/2012/06/28/c-new-operator/ _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
