Oops. I guess I should watch those fingers when I try to type
fast. :-)
Thanks Josep.
Just out of curiosity, anyone know the fundamental differences
between apt and urpmi? I've heard that apt can do dependency
resolving to more levels but I don't know the specifics.
Also, anyone want to speculate on why Redhat hasn't added
one or the other or something similar? It really fills a
void in how rpms work and both are GPL...
