While compiling apr-util if you want to point a specific version of bdb installed in your system use the the following:
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apr-util-1.3.9 \ --with-apr=/usr/local/apr-1.3.8 \ --with-berkeley-db=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.7/include:/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.7/lib
On last Friday ie., 05-06-2009, http://dev.tce.edu/ went live with "Redmine". The previous "trac" based site was replaced with Redmine, considering the ease of administering projects with a web interface. The alpha run (April 25th, 2009) of Redmine site was served using FCGI over apache which was very slow and the performance was not up to the mark. But now we run the production site using mod_rails over apache2 which is faster!
Also the subversion repository creation is automated
Recently Yahoo changed the way in which we connect to the IM, which broke Pidgin clients in Debian Lenny and Ubuntu systems, specifically pidgin client version 2.5.7 and below. We can correct it by doing the following if you don't want to upgrade your clients to something latest,
Go to your yahoo account settings in Pidgin. You'll see two tabs at the
top. Go to the second tab(advance). There you'll find, "scs.msg.yahoo.com"
and a few other web addresses change it to *cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com*.
