I particularly like the way bridge-utils will build _entirely_ differently according to whether it happens to detect libsysfs in the system or not. And sometimes it fails to detect libsysfs even when it's present, so it silently builds for a 2.4 kernel :) -- dwmw2 -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
