It turns out the dynamic version of the -devel stuff wasn't enough, I just 
installed the static versions, then chowned the whole trunk tree to me, and 
it built as me.  Synaptic has now removed the 2.4.1 rpms, so now a root 
make install...  And that seemed successful.  Now, I did have it working on 
mandriva back in the spring, and that drive hasn't been re-assigned, so if 
I can find all the stuff on that drive and move it, maybe it will work.  But 
first use synaptic to install the K interface.  Humm, that was a kde3 piece, 
and seems not to have made the trip to kde4.5.x yet, darn.

Anyway its installed, now to find the old configs.  Thanks Charles.

One thing that keeps biting me, this list has no List-Header:, so when I 
click on reply to mail-list, I get no To: line and have to copy paste the 
recipients, you and the list.  Is this intentional?
