Thanks for the pointer, as I jadn't really investigated the root cause. glibc-i18data just recently broke away from the main glibc package and I know it broke lsb and possibly some other things, as far as Requires/BuildRequires. > * Desperately no mouse/trackpad.

You might drop a line to the maintainer of that package. Stew Benedict -- MandrakeSoft PPC FAQ: http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ppcFAQ.php3 IRC: irc.openproject.net #cooker-ppc
