Fran�ois,

I have a question about some urpmi behaviour. I'm not sure if it's meant 
to be.

Take a look at this example:

# rpm -q --whatprovides automake
automake1.6-1.6.1-2mdk

"automake" is provided by automake1.6-1.6.1-2mdk.

Now if I want to add some packages (say automake and qt2-devel) I get 
the following:

# urpmi -p --auto-select --auto automake
installing 
/mirrors/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/automake-1.4-20.p5.mdk.noarch.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        automake < 1.6.1 conflicts with automake1.6-1.6.1-2mdk
Installation failed

Wouldn't it be the better behaviour of urpmi to skip the packages that 
are already provided on the system and get the others installed?

Stefan
