Yeah, I needed 670 emgs :). I'm still doing the auto-select. I'm glad I put in 'contrib' - I also had a slow mirror in .ca for plf, so I deleted and replaced with a new entry. I also had to apply --force --nodeps --noclean tk the urpmi command line. Otherwise, I'd probably have to do the whole download again, which took a little over 2 hrs on a 1.5 mpbs ADSL connection - it's about a CD's worth of data, if not a little more. Even on a 1ghz athlon, it takes a while to slog thru all those rpms to find out what to do. There were a few xine packages on plf with bad sigs, so I elected to install them anyway - besides I use mplayer :). There's a lot of conflicts so far with respect to apache related packages and mysql / postgres. In point of fact there apparently exists two different flavors of apache (apache and apache2. Shouldn't one be gotten rid of? I don't really use apache much. They're mostly icon files in /var/www/icons so I doubt they've changed much, but the 'wrapper' (i.e., the rpm) has, and of course it conflicts. Well, at least it's finally installing all those packages.
