[14:34] <blindcoder> hardly :)
[14:37] <jllitvay> yeah, but FOR a pentium-mmx it could be. I would build it in a athlon-xp 2100MHz with 740MB ram

[19:38] <stf^rocklinux> th: also read 1.5.10 Changelogs, and search for core (dump)

[20:07] <fake> i already suggested we remove sasl1 and put sasl2 headers in /usr/include/sasl

[20:08] <fake> (mostly nasty patches, btw)
[20:09] <stf^rocklinux> fake: I'm for it :)
[20:10] <stf^rocklinux> fake: I could put sasl2 headers in ../sasl and sasl1 in ../sasl1
[20:10] <fake> short xterm question: in /usr/ or in /usr/X11R6 prefix?
[20:10] <fake> stf^rocklinux: is any package using sasl1 ?
[20:10] <th> the latter i'd say
[20:10] <stf^rocklinux> fake: dunno
[20:10] <fake> stf^rocklinux: let's take a look
[20:11] <fake> not in crystal
[20:14] <fake> hehe, mutt uses cyrus-sasl in the .10 version
[20:15] <fake> the only package that has cyrus-sasl (1) in it's cache file besides mutt is python-ldap
[20:15] <fake> and that package i can account for
[20:16] <fake> so, as far as i am concerned, we can kick cyrus-sasl

[20:17] <stf^rocklinux> fake: you can kick cyrus-sasl afterwards ;)
[20:18] <stf^rocklinux> fake: or should I remove the package in the patch?
