[brluglist] Continuing Saga

[John Hebert]

I'm not familiar with what you are describing.
Definitely bring your machine to the next meeting and
we will all take a look at it.
It sounds like you are upgrading(?) RedHat to 7.1. Are
you? What do you need backwards compatibility for? I
know there is some goofiness w/ 7.1 and the libs, but
I don't remember the details.
