Better solution download apt and synaptic. http://freshrpms.net If you are using RH8 these are the direct links to the files you need. http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/psyche/apt/apt-0.5.4cnc7-fr1.i386.rpm http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/psyche/synaptic/synaptic-0.24-fr1.i386.rpm Synaptic is a graphical tool for rpm apt. Install both rpms. Go to command line as root and issue: apt-get update (this updates the list of packages available to you) Then issue: apt-get -f install xdvi Yes, tying apt into the RH package system and including them by default would be wonderful. -- Johnathan Bailes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
