You can ignore it. If a package is obsolete, it still does exist (this isn't a "no such package" type of error), and if the maintainer of it did things correctly, it still will supply whatever functionality it did previously. It's a notice that there is a better or more modern way, not that the existing way is functionally broken (unless maintainer of python25-socket himself is functionally broken:). Let us know if you want more info about obsolete-package replacement once you get going on this pkg. dan -- Daniel Macks dma...@netspace.org http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!
