My favorite mirror is my rsync: /mnt/mandrake/cooker, updated about an

OK:





urpmi.addmedia cooker-updates file://mnt/mandrake/cooker/Mandrake/RPMS
with ../base/hdlist.cz





I found what appeared to be correct syntax in man urpmi.addmedia. I got
output messages that appeared to confirm it to be doing what I needed it
to do. However, when I went to X to run "update software", I got the
following:





"The list of updates is void. This means that either there is no
available update for the packages installed on your computer, or you
already installed all of them."





Why must this be so difficult?





What was the exact command you used to update?



Exactly what I typed into the post you replied to.




There is no "update software" command that I know of.

The way you would update software using urpmi is with the command:
urpmi -v --auto-select
