Unfortunatly the application vendors are not providing their s/ws in such a format. Eg yahoo messenger provides rpm and some other option - I dont remember. Also openoffice is in tar.gz format which I dont think is as simple as running a script (?). Anyways, it was good to see an lsb compliant installer - if that's the case. ~A. ___________________________________________________________ To help you stay safe and secure online, we've developed the all new Yahoo!
