Yikes. You're right.
Thanks for the patch! :-)
For printf() it should not require the %s since we should be pretty sure
that the access permissions -rwxrwxrwx should not contain any format string
characters. But it should be safe to have %s anyway.

I remember trying to uninstall some packages, and being empeached because these packages where saying they would have to uninstall basesystem. That's certainly something I don't want to happen. I don't know exactly how dependancies are resolved. Is there a difference between dependances for installation and desinstallation ? If not, having a basesystem dependance would be dramatic.

Re: [Cooker] KDE3 Logout Confirmation
Hey Buchan! Will take a look. I cannot get kde3's kdm to run without replace the contents of prefdm with /opt/kde3/bin/kdm That is very messy I accept, but it was the only wat it worked.

[Cooker] KDE3 Logout Confirmation
Howdy I am trying to build a KDE3 setup for an LTSP implementation at our High School here in South Africa. I wanted to use kdm from KDE 3, so I patched the fndSession and prefdm files to run /opt/kde3/bin/kdm. Once that was working I started locking things down to make it all as bullet proof as possible... Then I broke things a little. I was tweaking the kdm configuration in kcontrol, and deleted the KDE3 session option. I am now left with only KDE (which loads my local account into KDE 3, but root into KDE 2.2.2 why?). I tried to add KDE3 again, but it removed all my KDE 3 settings and now for both KDE and KDE3 sessions in the session manager (Both those session names produce a KDE 3 desktop) I get the old KDE 2.2.2 logout confirmation, not the new KDE3 one.

[Cooker] ntp RPM has wrong dependencies.
ntp-4.1.0-1mdk.i586.rpm uses chkconfig in its scripts, but chkconfig is not listed as one of its dependencies. Version 4.1.1 does not fix this problem, either. This is a problem if one wants to roll his own installs and desires RPM to do the ordering for him. Unfortunately, I cannot file a bug at qa.mandrakesoft.com. How would I escalate this issue?

It is not implemented currently, it only uses package name when searching through the installed database (it uses package name or provides for urpmi db), it should have checked conflicts and remove request to install automake-1.4. urpmi will get some extensions to support such things in the future.

[Cooker] MCC Broken
I freshley installed cooker from ftp and find mcc broken. I type in the
command mcc as root and there is nothing. Not even an error argument. I do
strace -c mcc and I get the following output:
