Yowsa! That made a _huge_ difference in the set of packages I see in 
YaST Install & Remove. I was preparing a posting about how I couldn't 
find a bunch of the dependencies for running iPodder (a Python-based 
podcast aggregator), but it's all moot, now.

Thanks for pointing this out and sorry to make you say it twice.

I really do appreciate all the work of all you folks in making this new 
release available.

Ummm... I'm not sure if you're kidding or not. You don't _really_ want 
us all to synchronize our access to your server, do you?
