About the only change in ccd that looks like a bugfix and that went in after 2.1.6.1 is: revision 1.16 date: 1996/07/24 23:45:24; author: asami; state: Exp; lines: +36 -28 Fail when odd number of disks are specified with mirror flag. Memory leak fixes. Miscellaneous cleanup.

It's no problem to upgrade via the source. Simply do a `make world'. Don't give up if something unforseeable happens, try to resolve the problem, and continue with the make/make install. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
