Heh. We have a second home in Durban. I have a .au address, but haven't
set things up for multiple email id's on the sending side, so the .za is
what I'm usually using.

I'll certainly bring the book if I get there. Work's been a bit of a
seven-day-a-week affair recently, so I can't be sure.

I see there's a third edition out just last month - I have the second
edition. The new edition seems to have dropped the Perl chapter, but has
added Gnome and KDE plus some other stuff. The table of contents, and a
sample chapter on rpm an deb, are linked from:
