Sorry to be slow.  So the current polybori effectively requires cudd
2.5.0, but Fedora 16 has cudd 2.4.2.  Got it.  This patch isn't
necessary for Fedora 17 or Rawhide, which have cudd 2.5.0, so I will
probably do nothing about this problem.  Sorry.

I run Rawhide inside virtual machines, since it can get a bit rough at
times.  But Fedora 17 Beta just came out.  Perhaps it would be worth
updating to that.

Right.  The situation is not great on Fedora 16, but is too painful to
change now.  Let's focus on making the Fedora 17 versions be all that
we need.

Okay, I'll see what needs to happen to build polybori with NTL
support, and add the patch to install flags.conf.

I am adding the NTL package maintainer to CC to make him aware of this
issue.  Regards,
