I installed fresh from my sunet cooker rsync about three days ago. Last night (around 02:00 UTC) I freshened my rsync, then did the following:
1-urpmi.addmedia --update cooker-updates file://mnt/nfs/ax5t3/cooker/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz 2-urpmi -a 3-urpmi -v --auto-select 4-urpmi kernel Step 3 installed about 39 packages and ended with a warning that two packages were not available. Step 4 ended with "everything already installed", even though my kernel was 2.4.22-9, but the package on the mirror is 2.4.22-10. So, I went to the RPMS directory and successfully ran 'rpm -i kernel-2.4.22-10mdk-1-1mdk.i586.rpm'. Is this oddball 10mdk-1-1mdk rpm the reason why urpmi wouldn't install it? How do I find out what other existing packages didn't install? Why were there packages missing? BTW, after each rsync, the last screen message (after size/speedup) is not appended to the log. That last message is always of the form: "rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(1045)". Why is this line not appended? Why the error message at all? -- "...[B]e quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry...." James 1:19 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.
