Hello, It often happens that during a Mandrake Update I discover that one program installed on my system is actually unneeded. Upgrading it is useless, but if it is a security threat it should not stay there.
It may be a good idea to have in the Mandrake Update UI an option that means "don't upgrade this package but rather uninstall it". So there are three states: upgrade/don't upgrade/uninstall This would be good for security and handy. Especially, small sites (small enterprises for instance) with slow connection to the net would sometimes avoid long and useless downloads to upgrade unneeded software. -- Stéphane Gourichon - Labo. d'Informatique de Paris 6 - AnimatLab http://animatlab.lip6.fr/ - philo du dimanche http://amphi-gouri.org/
