I think this issue is slowly going away. I am using many repos at once and am constantly keeping things updated and looking for new programs to play with. They seem to play nice together nowadays. The only issues that I have had with the repositories with NyQuist, because there was an issue with using him AND the kde repos. After a few months of emailing the list, I noticed that the guy who does the NyQuist repos doesn't really hang out on the FreshRPMs list, so I asked the KDE folks what the issue was, emailed him in regards to it..and within 2 days, the issue went away. :-) -Robby -- Robby Russell | Owner.Developer.Geek PLANET ARGON | www.planetargon.com Portland, OR | [EMAIL PROTECTED] 503.351.4730 | blog.planetargon.com _______________________________________________ PDXLUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pdxlug.org/mailman/listinfo/pdxlug
