Well, the latest breaking news from the rdesktop front: |
| 44 |
- I tried to reemerge rdesktop (release 1.4.1) with the "debug" USE |
| 45 |
flag set in package.use. First test: It works !!! (after spewing |
| 46 |
incredible amounts of debugging messages at me). OK. |
| 47 |
- I removed the line specifying "debug" USE flag and reemerged again |
| 48 |
(same state as before). What do you think happened |
| 49 |
now?.... well.... it worked!!!! |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Well... on one hand, I'm glad it's working now. |
| 52 |
BUT .. I feel somewhat spooked :-))) |
| 53 |
Has ANYONE some kind of explanation for that??? |
| 54 |
Dazed & confused, |
