Is it fixed with urpmi-1.6-3mdk?

There's no XFree86-devel there, while urpmi --auto gnome-libs-devel does
install it... (I'm sorry if I'm a bit impatient, this feature will solve
many issues I'm having with my damn scripts)...

? I can't find the switch that would do that. Is there a --test switch,
or would that be the same as urpmq -d ?

It works!!! Thanks!!!!
This makes my script a lot simpler!!
