question.. where does RPM get its info? a database thats updated when UPDATES are thrown in the mix? Or a database that comes with the cd and helps you, but when updates get thrown in it may no longer help you or be broke so to speak? i assume up2date must have many updated databases to look at, does RPM have this also? Jim.
