I actually found a pretty neat demonstration of the new package installation behaviour, by Nicolas Fevrier, posted on his YouTube account: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5t91ylz3XJQ Key takeaways - You point it at an HTTP repo, a-la Yum - It works out what is available on the repo - It works out what it should and shouldn't install vs. 5.x, this seems like utter bliss. It's not quite Apt, but I'm happy to see the improvement. -- Tom _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
