I do agree with you. I even posted on the BTS the URL of GPLHost's own Debian repository that I manage so there is a workable solution NOW. My employee, which know python a lot better than me, is working on a patch. I'm not sure we will be able to have it working without python-iniparse, but we will try. That being said, if we can't have a working yum without new python modules, I do insist: yum shall be REMOVED from Lenny, as it's BROKEN. More about this later on, after Manuel's python work on the package. Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
