True enough. The newer-to-Linux folks don't really understand RPM so
they didn't know whether or not the class would cover basics. Us
older-to-Linux folks knew what to expect. The class was good and
covered exactly what it should have covered.
Another more basic class might be a good idea. Especially since some
folks think that RPM Management and Good System Management are the same
thing.
It maybe that we just need a simple RPM reference page to point newbies
to.
Take care - Jon Carnes
