Hi Harry,

>I tried to compile ldm-6.0.0.18 under Linux, and I got the following:

Yup, we know that both 6.0.0.17 and 6.0.0.18 have build problems.  The
best release candidate to use right now is 6.0.0.16.  Steve will be
working on a new release candidate as soon as he recovers enough from
an illness to return to work.  This should be tomorrow.
