rpmfind is good if you know the subprogram needed to satisfy the depenancy of an RPM, but you have to manually find and download it.
Mandrake-Linux has this whole problem figured out right. If you install something new from the CDs, it will determine what other RPMs need to be installed to satisfy the dependancies and will prompt you for the corresponding CD to install. IMHO this is important, and should be standard with all distributions. RPM depenancy hell is one of most major ease-of-use barriers to Linux rollouts. And it should be going the way of the dinasours (having to manually fix depenancies, to an extent that is). -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
