Right, I looked for fancy stuff (such as C++ math libraries). (Before starting a distro flame war: I use Debian, and the lists of packages are for a friend, who is currently using RedHat 5.2, and I want to persuade him to switch to Debian for the new PC, which he plans to buy in the near future.) > BTW, the packages themselves are also available at > http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/5/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/ > (for Core package) > http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/5/i386/ > (for Extra packages) > and various mirrors worldwide. To be more precise: I needed a list, which includes also brief descriptions of the packages. --- Omer -- You haven't made an impact on the world before you caused a Debian release to be named after Snufkin.
