As I mentioned elsewhere, I was mistaken - this was 10.0, not 10.1. On Sat, 3 Jun 2006, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Your opinion is ALWAYS correct (by definition) and I respect it and have no intention of trying to change it <smile> My opinion is that SuSE's package manager is rather good, much easier than RedHat type and for me much more suitable than the apt-get paradigsm, where I need to build the SAME system many times over many years without needing to test if anything broke *this iteration*. (with the app, not the OS) Your answer identifies PFDFT (pilot flight deck finger trouble - I jest not) as the problem, not <breathes easier> some Grave Problem with SuSE 10.1 James _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
