Peter,

This might have been better discussed on the fwtools list.

I am currently unable to rebuild fwtools on linux due to the death of my
old server, and the differences in various versions of things on the new
one.  So, for the time being, FWTools builds for linux have ceased.

I do hope to resolve the issues at some point, but it is not very high
priority and there is no timeline.

Best regards,
