What is very frustrating is that the define sources dialog on RPMDRAKE. When I attempt to define an FTP source, and for some reason it fails, it returns to the edit sources dialog and I have to do it all over again (click new and type in all the details!) - this is very annoying.
If the entry in the new dialog fails, the fallback should be back to the new dialog to re-edit it and try again. Also, what is the "synthesis" vs. normal hdlists? This must be new . . I have another machine with the Cooker Rsynced mirror and use ProFTP server to load the other machines - but after a fresh install, RPMDRAKE is confused and trying to correct it is not easy. Thx.
