While making a tarball would be easy, the person using it would have to be sure they had the libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 shared library, which is from gcc 2.95. Luckily, Ubuntu/Debian and Fedora still carry this, but I doubt very much whether other distros do, and it would certainly not be trivial to build it. - -- Luke Yelavich GPG key: 0xD06320CE (http://www.themuso.com/themuso-gpg-key.txt) Email & MSN: themuso at themuso.com Jabber: themuso at jabber.org.au -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGeEbmjVefwtBjIM4RAr8BAJ9Asah7h/1uyx1dzEL67ZQvl9/diwCfZ+8e I+BXukX3dZcM4djcOs3q9Vo= =0504 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
