I am not finding urpmi very functional nor impressive in Mandrake 9.0. In Mandrake 8.2 it works like a charm but in 9.0 it chokes on virtually EVERY query I make.[luca@pippo luca]$ urpmq -r recode
Latest:
"urpmi recode"
In 8.2 this immediately turns up a hit and seeks permission to install another rpm to satisfy dependencies. In 9.0 I get "no package named recode".
Heh. There IS a 9.0 rpm for recode. I also get this equivalent message for EVERYTHING I have tried to urpmi. I end up having to go to rpmfind instead to find and download the rpm.
What gives?
recode-3.6-3mdk
Maybe the sources are not configured correctly?
Is this an upgrade or a fresh install? I had to manually remove the old lists and clean up the /var/lib/urpmi directory after an upgrade.
Also http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon is your friend.
