i haven't posted one... the information available on SF says to contact the
current maintainer, Michael Dukelsky, which i have done... i didn't feel like
joining another mailing list and i haven't looked to see if RU.RNTRACK is
available at any of my feeds... i don't really care to join it/them for just
one or two problems... i may later on, though, once i get into configuring it
but it looks to configure very similar to netmgr... i'm not sure what one would
 do with the perl scripting support but it might come in handy at some point...
 for now, bouncing these few netmails is all i'm after ;)

 GK> Is your problem with bison or flex?

bison... i don't have flex installed that i know of... i also don't know if
bison calls flex or not...

 GK> Could you post the error you get here?

the error was about " ={" and " = {" and said the "=" was unexpected...

i took a chance and hacked all the above to just "{" (removed those equals
signs) and bison completed... there were also four or five FILEBOX* lines that
needed a ";" added before the ending "}"... the build now completes and i've
sent a diff to Michael to use if needed/desired... said diff/patch file is 1494
 lines long and i can make it available to you/others if needed...

 GK> Do you have an easy way to try a previous version of flex/bison?

not that i know of... the system is maintained by aptitude and i'm loath to go
forcing things around... especially since it is my BBS production machine and
one of the stars for the NAB...
