Everybody, or at least, a lot of people here are using Cooker. Is there really a big differences between using cooker updated on a very frequent basis, and upgrading the packages on each new version of the distribution ? I mean, can I use urpmi in the same way as debian use apt-get upgrade ? And if not, why ? After all, upgrading cooker and upgrading a stable version is the same process, there is only more packages for upgrading a stable version. Maybe I should try before asking, but, no one ever talked about this possibility. With urpmi sources configured to point on , for example, ftp.free.fr/mirrors/ftp.mandrake-linux.com/Mandrake/current , I can't see why this should not work. Mick
