There is a vServer 2.6.10-vs1.94 kernel running but nothing important
guest-wise in on the system.

Will they then work with the new vs2.0 kernel, ie. the build doesn't look
at running kernel and make decisions about what/hoe to build the utils.

Famous last words. Yes I am hoping this is so.

Follow up question.

I went ahead and started building the utils as RPMs and ran into a couple
of dependency issues. This is probably more an Enrico question.

Why tetex-latex? Is it Redhat ( RPM ) build-documentation requirement?

Why xalan-j ( Java? ) Is this also a Redhat-ism?

I like RPMs but I'd prefer a really clean Vserver host. ( I'll try a
straight tarball build next. )
