I hope that will fix the problem. The best I have been able to do was to update from 3.4p1-0.0woody1 to 3.4p1-1 Upgrading to 3.6.1p2-4 requires upgrading 32 packages, including the C libraries and that is very risky. It would have to be done by someone who can at least restart the server if necessary. > If the above upgrade of the server doesn't fix the problem, may I please > have some sort of shell access to the server to poke around and get a > better idea of what the problem is. Thanks. do you already have a username in Savannah and have submitted the public key for your server? if you don't, please send me the public key and I'll give you access. > I hereby volunteer to make an attempt to solve the problem.
