[mira_talk] Re: [mira_announce] Call for testers: source code for MIRA 2.9.x

Hi Bastien,

mira-2.9.46x1 compiled without problem on my OpenSUSE 11.1, 64 bits,
kernel version 2.6.27.23. I had to install the boost-devel 1.36
libraries with yast2, and everything went fine.

Crossing fingers for the paper!

Cheers,

Lionel
