No, I'm sorry, I don't have the old file anymore. And I also cannot prove that I haven't touched the file, but I know I have not. But I just updated to xinitrc-2.4.4-62mdk.noarch: warning: /etc/X11/Xresources created as /etc/X11/Xresources.rpmnew warning: /etc/X11/Xsession created as /etc/X11/Xsession.rpmnew warning: /etc/X11/xdm/Xresources created as /etc/X11/xdm/Xresources.rpmnew The diff for the first two files: /etc/X11: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1899 Feb 27 17:34 Xresources* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1899 Apr 9 19:58 Xresources.rpmnew* mr@nibbler /etc/X11 $ diff -u Xresources Xresources.rpmnew --- Xresources 2002-02-27 17:34:06.000000000 +0100 +++ Xresources.rpmnew 2002-04-09 19:58:47.000000000 +0200 @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ !

As you can see, the config files were not changed, rpm shouldn't have created .rpmnew files. If I can help you in some way to reproduce the bug, let me know what you want to know. But I suggest we then move this thread to private mail? -- Michael Reinsch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://mr.uue.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------
