So we either should check all applications from /bin and /sbin if they affected by that problem and fix them or do smth else. I hope that sysinstall would be rewritten by some on before 6.release. But for 5.stable this could be fixed. I've already discuss this problem (concerning sysinstall) with ru@ and he suggested a patch. I asked Eygene to write a pr specially to get more peoples involved to discussion of general problem. However, I can't say at this moment if we have other affected application. rik >-- Brooks > >
