urpmi also fails to function. The commands I used from http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon mostly failed (the sites listed either don't exist or refuse connections). I was TRYING to get sites closest to me, as many US sites as possible but almost all failed. Urpmi and rpm are dead and useless. - -- Conservatives of all times are adventitious liars. - - Friedrich Nietzsche. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+KCzn1i/6R1B/Yh0RAu87AJ0QJuNYevnDfrT83ZUtu1AtOXxChwCeOjqM C36YC/0GvtN8GRYr267ILwU= =QC3q -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
