It isn't a rpm dependency on my system (RedHat 8.0), at least I presume it isn't since I didn't have any difficulty ending up with docbook2txt but no lynx. OK. I guess it is enough to make people aware that if they try to build the documentation now and they get back a message that "No way to convert HTML to text found" then it probably means they need to install lynx. -- Bill Medland ACCPAC International, Inc.
