Well, it is slow on some of my systems and fast on others. I was even wondering why it is this way :) Machines speed doesn't matter here. Live example: 400 MHz AMD K6-2 has faster rpm -qa than dual P3 1.4 GHz. It probably depends on what packages are installed. > from changelog in rpm you just need few recent ones to see is it worth to > upgrade rpm, or what was changed recently... Changelog in rpm could be even empty for me. But probably no one will agree with me here :) M. _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list pld-devel-en@lists.pld-linux.org http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
