This wasn't present in the very old 1.5.5.6 we had in EPEL until recently. This config file doesn't list all the available options, but it does point to the README and INSTALL files for further help. (Also worth noting is that the package was in the epel-testing repository for 3 weeks and was announced on both epel-devel and epel-announce to try and get testing from folks before pushing it stable. Sadly, very few folks do so, and issues are sometimes not caught.) Sorry if the update caused you trouble. --=20 Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Curiosity killed the cat, but for awhile I was a suspect. -- Steven Wright --CV9g7MldeTA+KTr7 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iQFDBAEBCAAtBQJNg3F9JhhodHRwOi8vd3d3LnBvYm94LmNvbS9+dG16L3BncC90 bXouYXNjAAoJEEMlk4u+rwzjZQgH/3X0aJtC4x5me+YC8drjSVyVrR8G+5OckMsZ 2aAWzbC/xFhM1MG9b0/LmgBce4EZQqE4OTUQe/g7bohGObYDXj1Ax3vRaAAOU8ZJ 0EEqCNls7fXGz+05hlGECR6OH3qD3EsuE+FIp/vQS9DY78PoWsrAoB5kaDDesAdo 9vTnQ6xT7mZ9p34JPGr78WtoA2v4uo0KRwetyD8vuiF97qJZU8+Zpwxb+jsv8fmA uXoW+ry5W5Z4sGGbDYm/wMcKA71/hv/rqDqo+19SgpIDEskwr7/BhvfdULnQ+2YY WXdrhSnp6gFT3lKr+87hWOSC32XuarwrwLcmQXd4nu08/NNc8Xo= =R9G4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --CV9g7MldeTA+KTr7--
