Re: [orca-list] orca just says welcome and that is all

I am running Master as of yesterday -- I can't find a file to say what
version -- I installed from source.

I am using the unstable version of gentoo.

I upgraded using a gentoo overlay which is sort of experimental
software.  If you need versions of specific  packages, let me know and I
can tell you exactly.

Sometimes, I can get later versions than the overlay has, either from
git or otherwise.

Your life is like a penny.  You're going to lose it.  The question is:
How do
you spend it?
