Default *Ping* Slackers.

I'm putting the stuff I compile every release online in packages at
www.websterscafe.com. If you can use them, cool. If they suck because of
some dumbass thing I did, let me know please. If you dont care, I dont
care to know.

On that note, I usually upload my stuff as well. For the most part,
it's nothing of consequence, but there might be above-average interest
in OpenOffice.org and ulogd, so I'm advertising... :-)

OOo is just a repackaging of the binary distributed by them; I made a
few minor changes (symlinked binaries to /usr/bin, added documentation
to /usr/doc/..., etcetera), but nothing substantial. 2.0 beta (1.9.128)
is currently there, and I generally update it within a few days after a
new release. http://rlworkman.net/linux/pkgs/openofficeorg/

For those who actually want to look at firewall logs, Harald Welte's
ulogd is great for keeping them from cluttering up /var/log/messages.

Sorry to 'hijack' your thread, sir - please accept my apologies... :-)

To the individual who contacted me offlist: I don't mind,
but I can't reply if the reply email address is invalid...


Someone wrote OFFLIST:

> May i ask : Why do you install Oo in /opt ?

See this link:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-...FTWAREPACKAGES

Perhaps it doesn't fit *perfectly* in this category, OOo *is*
self-contained software and it's fairly large. Also, it was
already packaged for /opt anyway, so I left it there... :-)
