with svgalib support?
You could have put seejpeg instead of zgv on the USB boot disk, since that 
is the most common camera format, to leave space for other things.

This implies that you have some way of uninstalling it.  I could not even 
reinstall glibc-2.2.5.

I was thinking of compiling my own shared lynx 2.8.6dev16 but the final 
release should be out eventually, as it has been two years since 
2.8.5rel1. Should I compile against 2.2.5 so more BL users can use it?
I still have that on the other computer.
