yes exactly, because this big bug and the HDD crash of my gentoo box (still in repair mode) is the initial linux release delayed but its very high on my todo and wanja said me he want fix that soon, so chances are good.
yes i said soon crossplatform till its planned to be so. our mac-man retired so I still looking for a new one. but there is a working example on mac too look at test releases, there you will find an older version which has also less problems on linux i think.
the current linux dev version has an so called installer which tells you what modules are missing for pce, but i definitly want to have some installer which grab all you missed from CPAN. any volunteers?
ok i will it also distribute als tar.gz so you can feel home too
