Hi all
Thanks for the help on rpmdrake. Now I have another question. What's
the best way of installing an un-official mandrake rpm. I am trying to
get gaim to work with msn now that they have apparently tinkered with
the protocol. The gaim website says it should work with a version
>7.1. They have a dl link that has a 7.2 mdk rpm at the top of the
list so I grabbed that but now it won't install because of dep
problems. Can I use urpmi, rpm, rpmdrake or anything else to install
this? Either command line or gui?

If you want gaim to work with msn, then Texstar has gaim-0.71 for Mandrake
9.1, and Charles Edwards has gaim-0.71 for Mandrake 9.2/Cooker

Texstar is urpmi enabled. For Charles' package just click on it using
konqueror and the magic of gurpmi will take over.

Thanks - I'll try that as soon as my daughter lets me on the computer. ;-)
