Probably the best FAQ for any issue is a dedicated website for a package; Bugzilla (especially querying ALL tickets over time) is a close second; Mailing list archives rank high, and Google is always your friend, albeit rather unfocussed at times. <smile> The RPM package website sub-section 'Hint 'n Kink' at: http://www.rpm.org/hintskinks/repairdb/ has updated with still more explanation, and Michael's nice lead in Q and form.. -- Russ Herrold, editor, RPM site. > I would phrase the FAQ entry something like this. <snip Michael nice stuff> > Michael Young
