I compiled a new c library and its availabe from

My initial patch was totally wrong...
And also my assertion that the NIS code for groups does not work. I
checked it while at this stuff and it worked to my surprise.

Many of the modules offered are called "*required*" which didn't seem
to me to be required. Sorry, I forget which ones exactly.

what should i use for suffix? is ".dpkg-old
I noticed while installing Debian 1.1 that the lynx package is slightly
out of date (version 2.4; newest is 2.6).
I also couldn't find any documentation on it in /usr/doc after installing
the package.
Does anybody know who the maintainer is, and/or whether this package has
been orphaned?

I think the NIS problems with /etc/group could be solved in the following
way:
1. Implement a cache for the initgroups library call that is so frequently
used to find all groups a user belongs to. This will also improve
general performance without NIS since the search of the complete

In the present configuration, the viewer lynx for HTML files
does not work on virtual filesystems. This problem can be
solved by a small change in the mc.ext. We have to substitute
the 'lynx -dump %d' in the viewer line for HTML files
by 'lynx -dump -force_html %f'.

However, this vim package doesn't use this tip:
