In its current implementation, the "meta-package" selection "erases" any previous selection that the user may have done. That's ok for the first intallation, but I don't think it's ok for "daily" use. If someone wants to provide the "meta-package" selection as a normal package, a little bit of work will have to be done to improve that. -- Enrique Zanardi [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
