Please don't say that I promised anything. I most certainly did not. Regarding your build failures with 5.3, I said: You've two options: 1) Fix the errors (should take about ten minutes -- they're simple) 2) Checkout the 6.0 beta due out any day now I use the term "any day now" with certainty: it will be out "any day now". I don't know when. I don't set the release schedule for gdb. As it is, have you checked out the 6.0 beta from the branch? Have you tried to fix the simple build errors that you were seeing with 5.3? I don't recall hearing anything from you about attempting either of these. I'd really like to believe that your terse message was not meant to come across as so vitriolic, but that's what it sounds like. Insight is not funded by anybody (I guess unless you count the odd couple of hours a week I spend on email support for it). Yes, it was originally developed (and released) by Cygnus Solutions (now Red Hat). Yes, I do work for Red Hat. I even worked for Red Hat on Insight for a brief amount of time in 2001. However, in case there is any doubt in any one's mind: INSIGHT IS AN OPEN SOURCE PROJECT FUNDED BY NO ONE. I have a day job, and it keeps me busy. I also have some other, non-computer interests which keep me busy after work, too. (Gasp! :-) Insight releases are NOT managed by me. We go with the flow and let gdb dictate release schedules. If you are unhappy with the 6.0 release schedule, you should take it up with the gdb folks. You can always download the 6.0 sources (which haven't changed a whole lot, as far as I can tell) from CVS. The source is always there. Keith
