<p class=MsoNormal>Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>In trying to track down what was ultimately a typing problem
in front of the keyboard, I’ve developed a set of steps to include the
expect patch in Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Server Ed)’s expect package. I’ve
also tried to submit this to the maintainer of the package, so we shall see
what happens. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>A handy page I referred to for compiling packages:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
