I tried a fresh panoramix and ncurses install. It was from the
hard drive and I was using expert mode in panoramix and custom
install in ncurses. My mirror is from ftp.sunet.se and is current
as of about 3 or 4 hours ago.
Here are my observations for panoramix:
1) I had to use the show all packages to actually
install most of the packages I use regularly. If i had not the
total install would have been about 80megs.
2) The info on the packages should go back to the top of
the window for each new description.
3) When I got to the installing packages, the install
broke and gave me this.

opened rpm database
for the ncurses install here are my observations:
1) finally when i assigned a mount point for the
partition that my install packages are on it didn't give me any
errors. Usually it complains about not being able to find
something and the install exits. I found this out by accident
during this install and when it worked I was surprised. Thank you
for fixing this annoyance.
2) unresolved dependencies
pgcc-c++ no suggestions
sane no suggestions
3) after the install on the control panel; Network
configuration, modem tool, and kernel daemon configuration don't
work.
4) Linuxconf crashes unexpectedly
thats it. Thanks for working so hard on making this a good
dostro.
