I'm still trying to get my head around Debian packaging and .install files (Fedora uses RPM and Yum. Debian's easier, but different) so my .install doesn't work. Maybe it just needs to be "user" instead of "free". So far, I have ported a few odd things I can't do without: diffutils - diff,sdiff,diff3 bc - arbitrary precision calculator bzman - emulates "man" using preformatted, bzipped pages cron - kind of works, but is missing "mail" gnuplot - X based plotting program less lynx - text-mode web browser nc - netcat tcp/udp client/server http://andrew.triumf.ca/N810/repository/dists/chinook/free/binary-armel/ Now that I look, diff and less were probably in /scratchbox/tools/bin all along, but I couldn't find them on my N810 with "apt-get install less". -- Andrew Daviel, TRIUMF, Canada Tel. +1 (604) 222-7376 (Pacific Time) Network Security Manager
