   I pretty much always have build-essential on my systems!  Just had to add   
   Subversion (more likely to use CVS or Git these days to access code).   
      
    RC> svn co svn://svn.ozzmosis.com/xmsgapi   
    RC> cd xmsgapi/unix/gnu-c/   
    RC> make   
      
   That'd be what I'm looking for! :)   
      
    RC> cd ../../..   
    RC> svn co svn://svn.ozzmosis.com/netmgr   
    RC> cd netmgr   
    RC> make   
      
   Worked this time. :)

   Yep, the xmsgapi package made the difference, netmgr compiled and seems to run.

   No need, but I now have a binary for the Pi. :)
