And therein lies the catch. To do what you would suggest you would have to have to recode rpm to do what you are talking about. And what's so bad about a shell script? I'll grant you, it's not easy, but if I wanted easy I would have stayed with Microsoft. On the plus side, you don't have to wait around for somebody to recode rpm (of course, you could also attempt that). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
