2008-08-24 Thread David Hall (coding)
I'm wondering if this is related to the issues I had when installing wine from winehq.org (which also involved libldap breakage). The following is from a discussion with Scott Ritchie: David Hall (coding) wrote: > The current problem seems to be due to libldap2 (which is a dependency o

Okay, so I checked this with the previous git-core version 1:1.5.5-1, which ended up having the same problem. So, given that it was previously working with that version, I wondered if something else had changed in relation to this. Not quite sure what this change was, but I noticed that there was

I ended up needing to reboot my computer today, so I did one pass of a MemTest (with success), but don't currently have the ability to do it for a whole day, due to the nature of my work on the computer (although this might be possible about 2 weekends away). Anyway, just after doing that, I notice
