Same here - every 5 or so rpm's create problems that require manual intervention - gcc, quota, and MandrakeUpdate/grpmi to mention some. Its not reliable in that a package installs ok on one machine, but not another (grpmi installed on both, MandrakeUpdate on only one for instance) selecting the package that was downloaded to /root/tmp using kpackage installs it ok. Good idea, poor/buggy execution. BillK A V Flinsch wrote: > > On Wed, 27 Sep 2000, you wrote: > > > > I've given up on MandrakeUpdate as a buggy and annoying program.
