Jack, I like your idea alot. Does anyone see any advantage to adding some packager/versioning information inside the /var/lib/lrpkg/<pkgname>.version file? I think the file is supposed to have the package version number. What if a second line had the packager's name/version/tag/vfat package name/whatever. Scripts that use the file to get the version number would have to grab just the first line, but putting the additional info in the file would allow the original package info to be saved even if the target system was a fat-only box. Just a thought. _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
