Hello A,

Auto upgrades are soon becoming passe in most linux distros. In Mandriva, this is also a two step process. one has to execute the command "urpmi --auto-select" (after adding the correct repositories of course, using urpmi.addmedia). I did this for a 2005LE to 2006 upgrade without issues.

In fedora the equivalent is "yum upgrade" IIRC, which also works pretty much flawlessly I hear.

SUSE also has something similar I believe. Tho' I do not know the details.

BTW does anyone here know anything about Delta RPM ? seems like a neat idea. It was added to Mandriva 2006.

Good things are happening in linuxland :) !

Regards
Steve
