True. But looking for changes in a set of '76 changed packages' is much more easy than looking in a list of 428 packages. That's why I've made the script. Furthermore, It lists directly the changes and you don't have to click on each of them to know what's happening. -- Mehdi Dogguy مهدي الدڤي http://dogguy.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
