Yes, almost exactly is the key. Close enough I wish I had a useful way to cache the information ;-) PackageCheck returns 0 or 1. Yes or no. PackageList fills an array with the matching packages. The former is used to determine if action is necessary. The later is used to determine which packages to remove. -- Jo Rhett senior geek Silicon Valley Colocation _______________________________________________ Bug-cfengine mailing list [email protected] https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-cfengine
