Which, as you say, has nothing to do with what's being addressed. Binary dependencies exist whether you're aware of them or not. Some people blame RPM for somehow causing the problem, since it generates the warnings. This is akin to blaming fire alarms for causing fires. -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
