This worked beautifully, once I constructed a "fake" path under a

Thanks for the suggestions, all.

Oh, shoot, I thought I'd checked on bison, but I just re-checked, and
you're right. I'm a moron. Thank
hat, but that's also what I came up with.
It's not suitable for --set-selections, but it'll do. Thanks.

LyX is not in main, but in contrib, because it depends on the Xforms
library, which is not free. There is a current effort under way to
port LyX to GTK+, I believe. If you want LyX, add the relevant
contrib and non-free sections to your ap

Given the NAFTA, one would have imagined that brokers would have

answer, in this case, is to reset the cable modem. That will mkae it

o make sure that your
(mysql) module is loaded properly (it is never configured to load for
me by default); alternatively, manually call the module for insertion
from inside your PHP scripts. This is slower if you're using the
database on every page.
That's all I&
ting the other line that includes "php" not to
include that extension). I might be completely wrong about this,
because I haven't played with the config too much (PHP4 was not ready
when I started the project I'm using PHP3 for, and I'm in no hurry to
go back and re-test ev

Do you have a mime-type or an application type set of PHP4? Is it
the same extension?

if you go with the version from woody, and you want to

ult) according to Debian policy, and the copyright
holders on pine do not allow you to distribute altered binaries. Therefore,
pine is in non-free (and, just to be clear, it's not part of official
Debian). There's also a set of diffs for altering pine to make it
Debianized.
