[Cooker] Wine install
When I try and install wine, it fails at the point where the config file is set. It states: /usr/X11R6/bin/wine-config: test: too many arguments sed: -e expression #1, char 28: Unterminated `s' command Any suggestions? -- Thanks, Jim Fritz, President FH SoftHouse, Inc. 603 East 16th StreetHolland, MI 49423 Phone: (616) 395-9556 Fax: (616) 395-9557

In x weeks will do a new ISO/tree with all the updates and it would be either 7.2 with a new build date - we are not going to call "final" each last build. All the updates for MandrakeUpdate are going to be targeted to the 7.2 of the shops.

Re: [Cooker] Sad state of pre-releasing to consumers
t system and legal system go by what is legal, not by what is right.

Thank you. It wasn't clear, and I appreciate your answer.

Re: [Cooker] Mandrake 7.2beta3 w/2.2.17 and 3ware 6800
I do have one more question though. Is there somekind of limitation, that keeps some modules un-available during install? I could understand a size limitation for a floppy install, but what about the CD install? Jim Fritz wrote: Thank you. It wasn't clear, and I appreciate your answer.

Re: [Cooker] Mandrake 7.2beta3 w/2.2.17 and 3ware 6800
I am not sure how to go about this, I have found that the kernel-2.2.17-21mdk.i586.rpm from 7.2beta3 does include the module. But I am not sure why it isn't available during the install; but it isn't as far as I can find.

Re: [Cooker] Mandrake 7.2beta3 w/2.2.17 and 3ware 6800
Or maybe there are already some instructions on using blank.img, that I have not been able to find. I don't mind RTFM, if I can find it.

Re: [Cooker] Compiling procps-2.0.6-12mdk.src.rpm fails
I am not a guru, so I am not sure if what I did was right or not but it does now build. What I did was add the following line to the spec file: bzip2 -9f $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/man/*/* I just looked at the differences between the 5mdk and the 12mdk spec file. Was I wrong in adding this line to the spec file?

Chmouel, The output from rpm -bl procps.spec for both the 5mdk and 12mdk source packages are exactly the same (other than the output listing 5mdk and 12mdk).
