My afterstep version is compiled from the source without problems. But i have problems to fix a problem if there is something going wrong when i compiling an programm. How do i uninstall the complete afterstep package? Is it enough to remove the complete dirs in /usr/local/share, ~/G/L/A and the binaries in /usr/local/bin ? > Remember though that the 1.7 branch is a developer branch, and may not be > totally stable. (I haven't seen it crash yet though... :) OK. I wait for an stable release, i hope soon. ;-) P.S.
