I have created the i386_linux3 symlink in /mit/infoagents/arch ... but I
think you should be aware that both the linux3 and linux2 link point to
the linux1 directory - I started to link linux3 -> linux2 and realized
this, to my surprise.
This doesn't make a lot of sense. And the setup precedes me, so I can't
explain it. But, at any rate, I'm prepared to discuss having separate sets
of binaries as needed.
By the by, blanche says I am on locker-maintainers, but I don't recall
seeing an email about i386_linux3 ... which probably just reflects the
messy state of my own mental filing system.
The linux3 symlink will have propagated by tomorrow.
