[Mailman-Users] Trouble getting htdig to work

[Paul Kleeberg]

Well it may look like it will be out with the new and in with the old.

What is interesting is that RedHat lists the file as 
htdig-3.2.0-7.20020505 - not a mention of the "beta" term.  Must have 
been a typo by someone with bad eyesight who typed "-7" instead of 
"b4"  ;-)

Now does that also mean I would have to replace htdig-web since it 
has the same release numbers on the RedHat site as htdig?  (I cannot 
seem find them on the web.)

What is also interesting is that it appears that RedHat used 
htdig-3.2b3 and then b4 to index the KDE help files in release 7.1 
but not 7.2.  Might they have "stabilized" it or is that against the 
rules without sharing that stabilization?  I think I keep playing 
with it for now.  Haven't gone production yet.
