I guess I misunderstood - but Andrew seems to understand.... Using my sceenshot as an example; FWIW - if you click on the blue links in the "right" pane, listed under "depends" (initrd-tools, coreutils | fileutils, module-init-tools) - "conflicts" (hotplug) - "suggests" (lilo, ...etc) selecting each/any one of *those* related items will take you to a list that each of *those* "depends/recommends/suggests/conflicts/provides" Anywho - Andrew taught me something today - thanks __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
