Hi,

When upgrading from 9.1 to cooker (after having done urpmi urpmi), I get
the following error if I try to urpmi a package :

# urpmi libarts1-devel --bug bad_array_ref 
Can't use string ("libm.so") as an ARRAY ref while "strict refs" in use
at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.1/urpm.pm line 3208.
#

You can download the bug report directory here :
http://www.enseirb.fr/~blino/bad_array_ref.tar.bz2

Some other points about urpmi tools :

From urpmf --help :
  --group        - print tag group: group.
  --size         - print tag size: size.
[...]

From man urpmf :
--group Searches through group.
--size Searches through size.
[...]

I guess urpmf --help is the faulty one, it should write "search through"
instead of "print" in these cases.

$ urpmi -q foo    
skipping package mplayer-0.91-7mdk.i586

When I quiet mode, urpmi shouldn't display the skipped packages.

Thanks for your work François :)
