would this explain why, when i run mandrake-update, the boxes appear that say 
'updating list' and 'fetching descriptions' (from memory could be different 
wording) and after they go there is nothing listed in either 'normal' or 
'development'? i guess all my installed 'normal' packages could be uptodate 
but there must be some 'development' packages i don't have since i haven't 
actually installed any! update has worked in the past which is why i think 
normal showing no updates is just about believable but no updates for 
'development'?

bascule
