Using rpmdrake this is what I get - choose a package to install - we'll say telnet-client [root@iq junfan]# rpmdrake extracting telnet-client-krb5-1.2.2-16mdk.i586 extracting telnet-client-krb5-1.2.2-16mdk.i586 installing ftp://ftp.blazeconnect.net//pub/cooker/Mandrake/RPMS/telnet-client-krb5-1.2.2-16mdk.i586.rpm 'ftp://ftp.blazeconnect.net//pub/cooker/Mandrake/RPMS/telnet-client-krb5-1.2.2-16mdk.i586.rpm' [root@iq junfan]# If I install telnet-client with: # urpmi telnet-client-krb5-1.2.2-16mdk everything is good. So I wrote a little shell replacement for urpmi to see what it's being passed. these are the args being passed to urpmi from rpmdrake/gurpmi - what have you. ARGS: --X --WID=44040269 telnet-client-krb5-1.2.2-16mdk Seems it something in the X implementation that crashes the file transfer causing it to fail. without the --X it works fine. -- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Jason Straight -- President BlazeConnect Internet Services -- Cheboygan Michigan ISP: www.blazeconnect.net Products: www.blazeconnect.com Phone: 231-597-0376 -- Fax: 231-597-0393
