Hi I've started a GNOME applet that notifies when a urpmi media has been updated. For now, it only supports ftp media whitout proxy. I may write a KDE version soon. I've written a minimalist webpage here : http://olivierblin.free.fr/mdk-check-update/index.html The package will be soon (this morning ?) in contrib.
Todo : - support proxies - support rsync (gnome-python cannot handle properly pipes, I have to find a workaround) - better FTP support - try to make it threadable (threads with gnome-python ? hummm ...) - let the user configure some things, update interval, icons - do some sort of integration with rpmdrake (does this mean writting some perl scripts ?) - kde port -- Olivier Blin
