The story here is luigiwalser.homeip.net is the
mirror, and claude is the proxy being used.  The
hdlists *are* newer and it's saying they're not.

Also, since we're post-9.0 now can you rename
edit-urpm-source.pl to rpmdrake-sources (it was on
your todo list I believe)?

Another thing I'm wondering, I guess this applies to
urpmi also, why do the hdlist files in /var/lib/urpmi
have to be different than the ones on the mirror in
Mandrake/base?  That makes it rather difficult to
solve some problems, including this one I'm having
here in particular.  How does it generate the
/var/lib/urpmi hdlists out of the mirror hdlists anyway?

[Cooker] rpmdrake-sources

2002-09-05 Thread H. Narfi Stefansson 


When I try to start rpmdrake-sources as a non-privileged user, it first 
asks me for the root password and then it exits.

Of course, I expected the program window to appear after I had typed in the 
correct password.

rpmdrake works fine in this regard, but I did not try rpmdrake-remove.

This is using rpmdrake-2.0-20mdk

Narfi.

Yep there is a require in consolehelper: the /usr/bin/name must
be the same than /usr/sbin/name.

So I'm reverting back to /usr/bin/edit-urpm-sources.pl, I think
it's not important enough to make a mess of symlinks only for
that.

 Why not /usr/sbin/rpmdrake-sources?  Any good reason
 to keep the other name?

I think it's too late to bother with such non-important things
because of programs launching it (drakconf, menus).

[Cooker] rpmdrake sources on beta2

2002-02-10 Thread Danny Tholen 

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I did a install from hdimage on /usr/install/ (while we're at it, why no install 
possible from iso9660 loopback device? would
be much easier) and it went well. However after installing rpmdrake thinks CD1 is at
file://mnt/hd//install/...
Ofcourse, this this not work and I had to manually point it to the correct dir. Can 
this be fixed?

Another thing in rpmdrake: when clicking the details tab on a package I see a small 
square (prolly indicating
a missing symbol) after the dates of changes in the rpm. This is with a fresh install 
and standard fonts installed (no funny windows fonts)
