[newbie] package manager for 10.1
Hi, Can anyone recommend a package manager for 10.1 that allows me to look inside the rpm file to view folders and files. I liked kpackage in the older versions but I can't find it's equivalent. tia, Bill W. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I know it lists installed packages and gives summary details about the rpm, but may not be what you are looking for. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Powered by Mandrake 10.1 Microsoft Free Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Hi, Kpackage is exactly what I'm looking for. Is there a build for 10.1? I went looking and when I tried to install an older version I entered the 'dependency' loop. Thanks, Bill W.

Yes, there is a version for 10.1 It's called kdeadmin-kpackage, and you can urpmi it or install it from MCC. Rick Kunath Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] package manager for 10.1
Hi, Thanks Rick et al. I tried to urpmi kdeadmin-kpackage and I got 'no package named kdeadmin-kpackage'. I haven't changed any urpmi settings (that I can recall). I also checked in mcc and it can't find it in the software install or remove utilities. hmm.anything else? Thanks, Bill W.

It appears that it only occurs with software located in DVD: /Mandrake/RPMS3 it's happening with every package I try that is coming from here On Fri, 2002-11-08 at 15:35, mpaskey wrote: I just installed Mandrake 9.0 from the DVD, when I go to install some of the additional applications it tells me...

Re: [newbie] Package Manager
I disabled Workstation DVD Edition (cdrom3) in Configure Sources and then re added the RPMS3 as a source but without the hdlist.cz line. and now it all appears to work. How Odd. Any Ideas why this happened?
