Great! Just tried it. This is exactly what I was looking for. As noted in your other email, it is kind of slow so it may well be worth investing more time into getting yum and/or urpmi working. If I can be of any help in porting / testing these I'd be more than willing to do so. Just contact me off list. -- Olaf ______________________________________________________________________ The OpenPKG Project www.openpkg.org User Communication List [email protected]
