But decline in > galeon usage from 18% in year 2003 to 3% in 2004 is really sad! I can't speak for anyone else, but I gave it up -- despite the fact that it was then my favorite browser -- some years ago, because of dependency hell. (The fact that Mozilla is my least favorite of all linux browsers may have a little to do with that, but probably not much: I kept it installed solely to be able to run Galeon, and after I lost Galeon solely in hope to get it back.) That seems to've been overcome, at least for the present, only in recent days: "yum install galeon" failed under FC4 as recently as yesterday, and succeeded only today. -- Beartooth Implacable, curmudgeonly codger learning linux No one can ever have enough books, pockets, friends, knives, guns, garlic, workspace, or mountains. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the 'Do More With Dual!' webinar happening July 14 at 8am PDT/11am EDT.
