Newbies should not care about upgrading individual packages. They would just get the latest distribution (e.g., Redhat is released every 6 months) and install/upgrade it. Upgrading redhat is an almost trivial operation: you still the CD-ROM in, choose "upgrade", and it automatically upgrades all the packages you already had (adding new stuff that you'll need) - it's an almost foolproof, newbie-friendly operation. -- Nadav Har'El | Thursday, Apr 11 2002, 29 Nisan 5762 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |A good programmer is someone who looks http://nadav.harel.org.il |both ways before crossing a one-way street. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
