First of all, a Happy New Year to all Mandrake Linux developers and
contributors and a BIG than you for this wonderful product !!!

        I installed and I'm using cooker since last month instead of 8.1
because I like the new packages and all went fine and dandy except for
the latest 3-4 VERSIONs that have a show stopper bug in install program
that goes lile this:

        1) All is ok up until after end of partitioning and when the package
selection screen should show up, but instead I got this message on the
graphical screen:
An error occured deplist.ordered mismatch against hdlist file

        2) On the 3-rd text console the messages are like that ( copyed by hand
):
ignoring arts-3.0-0.beta1.6mdk.i586 allready present with a different
version
ignoring kdevelop...something allready present with a different version

replacing old package with package
drakx-autoinstall-doc-8.1.1-1mdk.noarch with better arch: noarch

inconsistency in position for drakx-autoinstall-doc-8.1.1-1mdk.noarch in
deplist and hdlist

warning: deplist.ordered mismatch against hdlist files at
/usr/bin/perl-install/pkgs.pm line 565, <F> line 3425

        3) after that if I click on graphic screen button it goes back one step
to the partition chooser and then it never recovers from that error it
shows aftert that no error but some seriously borked packages selection
that of course it means that it can't continue anymore the instalation,
IMHO some variables from the last time attempt remainded with wrong
values.



        Question: how I could fix that ???

        Proposition: Isn't better to just print a warning and if package is not
important just skip it and continue the instalattion ???


                Best regards,

                Mircea C.
