I was afraid of that. Having "meta-packages" would be handy, though, for people who want, for example, and up-to-date potato without any GUI components, or development components, etc. Someone who wants a fully decked-out workstation would install all of the meta- packages. Of course, then you'd have to have a meta-package maintainer, which is Yet One More Thing To Do... - -- +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ron Johnson, Jr. Home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Jefferson, LA USA http://ronandheather.dhs.org:81 | | | !
