Re: [Oorexx-users] No Generic Linux packages for V4.1.3?

[Mark M. <mie...@gm...>]

Leslie,

The note is a little obsolete, originally we didn't have the capabilities
to build 30 different packages.  But, David has added a lot of flavors.

Still, you can take the meaning of the note to be:  If you do not find a
package that exactly matches your flavor of Linux, try picking a rpm or deb
package that is close to your flavor of Linux.
