Hi Simon, Thanks for that. Xandros being Debian based, I had assumed that the 'Xandros Networks' package manager was just a GUI for apt-get. However this seems not to be the case. I entered the command you suggested and got: /home/julian# apt-get build-dep xchat Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list This seems to suggest source.list is empty, therefore Xandros Networks must be using somethng else. Odd to say the least. I'm having a poke around Google for some suitable source URIs to add to the .list file. Any suggestions for know reliable sources would be welcome :) Kind regards, Julian -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEm8KJjs/5IBdCO1ERArbgAJ9gsHS40sV8jSb34MJLImqSa6Xh9wCdHiMP 69F6qqJF2oLlfl/cmafs6gs= =KCjj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
