So fire them. And if they aren't staff take away their permissions to modify the tree. There are plenty of us out there that do care and are willing to do a good job packaging. Ultimately bad packagers will still be bad packagers. This is one problem. There are many others that they can make. There are dozens of things that rpmlint warns about but yet packages still get uploaded with pathetic rpmlint errors in them. You have a people problem. A technical solution will not solve your problem. -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org "If you're not making any mistakes, you're flat out not trying hard enough." - Jim Nichols
