Thx for your support! 

Regarding the storage/download system of GARNOME, I think I've understood it already, since it's always telling what it does when work begins with every package.

The iso-codes problem is not new, but until now there was laying around a working archive for local installation somewhere.

I wonder if it's possible to find out the reason why the packages sometimes vanishes from f.g.o.?!? Strange thing I also found is that the tarball of the new 51.1-1 for isocodes has no "./configure" (but is stated in the docs/package). Otherwise I've had used that one...

Kind regards,

Stefan
