[Cooker] Kernel raid
What is going on with the kernel releases. First a package named "kernel-2.2.13-12mdk" appears on the mirrors that solved the raid problem I had (with a changelog that said the raid path was added), so far cool. But the next day a package named "kernel-2.2.13-11mdk" appears which guess what? have the same changelog but no raid support :-( ... ... Anyway, there is something wrong with the cooker building environment since I have noticed several anomalies: 1. packages appear with a new date stamp, new changelogs (and by this I suppose the package is different) but with the same patchlevel as the previous package. I have examined some of these cases, and indeed there was achange in the package, but no change in version designation. 2. packages appear with a certain patchlevel designation, and then a newer package follows with a lower patchlevel (ex. - the kernel case I just mentioned) Is this caused by human error? Because if not, the there are bugs in the building environment. These may seem like small glitches, but this causes havoc on automatically upgraded systems (Yes, I do automatically upgrade my system to the cooker mirror, is this crazy or brave?); and at the least it renders the use package version designation useless. I know I may look like a whiner with my long posts, but I just want to put my grain of salt to build better distros for everyone.

Re: [Cooker] making a legal case (SPAM)
The E*tractor Pro web-site is almost anal with repeatedly using the word OPT-IN in their wording, as well as having a pseudo-disclaimer 'discouraging' people from using their software to SPAM. Of course, this is bogus - after all, why would you need to harvest addresses in bulk for an opt-in system - I think a good legal case can be made by everyone involved (including ISPs involved) against the producers of Extractor Pro for misleading advertising (possibly), but definitely for fraudulent advertising. In the meantime, our list is slowly starting to be overrun by these moron spammers. I do agree that it sounds like a good idea to use a filter and to remove anything that has E*tractor Pro in the body text - add filterable words as needed.

[Cooker] The latest gnome-update
Hi! Is it just me or is the latest GNOME-update still incomplete on all the mirrors? E.g. it's mc-4.5.39-1mdk.i586.rpm but gmc-4.5.38-4mdk.i586.rpm, control-center-devel-1.0.40-1mdk.i586.rpm but control-center-1.0.6-1mdk.i586.rpm and gnome-core probably should also be updated for gnome-libs-1.0.40? just wondering, Kai. -- Kai Nielsen, Berlin Time and again I tell myself "She turns me on I'll stay clean tonight But I'm only dancing" But the little green wheels are following me Oh no, not again
