No, it's doing what you asked. You asked for a simulation of the install process, and that's what you got. -d does not effect the installation process and is not reflected in the simulation. Ever. -d only means to stop processing immediately after download is complete. It is utterly non-sensical to combine -s -d and expect nothing to be printed out. If you wish to `simulate' the download then the --print-uris option is the closest you can come. Jason -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
