Heh, that surely used to be a very good rule of thumb. Perhaps these days a rule of whichever is older Debian stable or current RHEL/CentOS would suffice? > Either we require 0.0.20 or we revert the tip one on this topic.

I'd like to get the EPEL builds for RHEL/CentOS updated sometime soon, as they're currently still on 1.5.5.6 and that lacks too many of the great improvements in newer git releases. Not having to patch for building the docs is one less thing to worry about. --=20 Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Rowe's Rule: The odds are five to six that the light at the end of the tunnel is the headlight of an oncoming train. -- Paul Dickson --VnOTrGv5LmZxna7m Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iQFDBAEBCAAtBQJLGB86JhhodHRwOi8vd3d3LnBvYm94LmNvbS9+dG16L3BncC90 bXouYXNjAAoJEEMlk4u+rwzjtuoH/2WWb6FgN4ySvUrJ5t2EUqkL0G9yQf3AkEsH e7kn7XGebbjYUHwM6Cx6Zs4y+sir7EhjTHg3WqQnBQZeZhHB8lgivb4C9/OlkuNP mepq/y1PeXutvIoTMDF6RAjpmDmyxQVmRPhHQX9a22TqFCy6O2wuOwQ9pPxtViwn 0yh/SL5z6OApXQZtjTh00gJA+fWQzaliSNI4MIDEcMHyfsCu5hBZZwG7mRAIxq8l MQzze7epqukzA8ek1zS9Xyejgsy4NHanfzvUpiQ1Vxo+H/cN8JCKJ1/O+Fy3FWKh hmpxICW3LyZ3GlqvMX9T/TPaSzhRS0pSnQIsjhCEmvewFUlvNDA= =EdgF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --VnOTrGv5LmZxna7m--
