I note muddle-minded confusion from which the snippet, above, is a segment.

I wish to make a minor correction of the last sentence, above. It was
not built for CentOS but for EL5, explicitly RHEL 5.

This discussion of my private work has *no relevance* to articles in
the CentOS wiki or the centos-docs m/l. I would appreciate it ending,
now.

If I did not know the originator of this m/l thread as well as I do,
he would be categorised as a mischief-maker and ignored appropriately.

If anyone wishes to discuss my non-CentOS related work, they are
welcome to make contact via the appropriate medium. There will be no
charge.

Alan.
