You are finding all the bugs today :-) That one is caused by a file on the contrib mirror being incorrect. It is only a warning, you can carry on and continue to install packages and ignore the warning. If you want the warning to go away permanently remove the file /var/lib/urpmi/list.contrib and then edit the file /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg and remove the line reading :- list: list.contrib Those files can only be edited by root user. An easy way to manage files as root user is to open a terminal, enter su <enter> to become root, then type : konqueror & And a konqueror file manager will run as root. To edit a file right click and select kedit to open the file in a text editor. derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
