And by moving it to extras might encourage gnucash to bring on the gtk2 release. And afterall we are lead to believe that extras isn't second grade. Also the original mozilla is around 16 meg as well and with 3 other browsers (firefox, epiphany and the kde konkeror (sp?) do we need it. Also is there a valid reason for have 3 versions of gcc, 5 versions of automake and 2 versions of autoconf? Peter Pete
