There was a question sometime back as to getting a description for rpms when installing from cooker ftp. I got tied up and then forgot about it, finally remembered today.
Add your cooker source URL as normal and either enter/edit the path as ../base/hdlist.cz For contrib use the same cooker source URL and the path ../base/hdlist2.cz Using ftp.ciril as an example For cooker URL: ftp://ftp.ciril.fr/pub/linux/mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS Path: ../base/hdlist For contrib URL ftp://ftp.ciril.fr/pub/linux/mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS Path: ../base/hdlist2.cz Using hdlist is much slower generating the list than synthesis but even I find it, on occasion, useful with contrib.
