And lo and behold, the packages worked.
If I made an important security boo-boo, let me know please.
OTOH, my left middlefinger hurts a bit from RSI.
The actual problem seemed to be osssink failing to negotiate, and aftersome digging I realized some code was added while I was away to autoprobethe allowed sample rates. Invited some friends over,experimented with roasting peppers to great success, and had a great dayout on the terrace. I love the weather here, even though it's been flakyof late.
Tried checking out their new SVN code setup, but couldn't make senseof the error messages svn threw at me. I feel an addiction coming up. Apparently keychain is a daemon whichallows you to authenticate only once per bootup, not once per session. LifeWent back to IKEA to buy new parts of life.
