It's not an "old" workspace to me; this is the first I've heard of it (and I've asked you on at least two occasions to describe what you have in process). I'm sorry, but if you post patches to configure.in in 21.5, I'm afraid it's a waste of your time and ours; configure development has moved on to ac2.5x. The SuSE guys' patch is maybe 6 months old, and Malcolm has also published a more comprehensive patch. They got there first, and I hope that in a short time we will be using the ac2.5x-based configure. Not to mention that I've already ported my Xft support to ac2.59, and will commit to my Xft branch shortly. Moving on here is pretty important, actually---ac2.5x is sine qua non for the SuSE guys, and there is a move afoot to get a 21.5-based package into the next major release of SuSE, which looks like freezing in the near future. That would be very helpful in terms of mind share in a market which actually contributes back to the project in terms of code and other support. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
