I've come accross some interesting problems people will encounter if they try to upgrade from 1.3 -> 1.5.(now let me see, 10 I think :-) There are work arounds but they can slow you down. If you've been following the upgrades you would not get thses problems. - 1.3 rmdir doesn't work under 1.5 . I made rmdir one of the first things to re compile. - Lots of the make files have a fancy sed command. Unfortunatly it doesn't work with 1.3 sed. The line as it stands is sed <inp >out 'expr1;expr2' a better alternative would be sed <inp >out -e 'expr1' -e 'expr2' You can tell that you have the problem by your `make all' commands give a sed error of trailing garbage. - As has been noted avoid 1.5.10 tsort, use 1.5.9's version. Obiviously 1.5ph won't have these problems, as every thing is under the one system. Andrew Cagney
