Good on you! I have similar concerns about the road that RED HAT is choosing to take, looks like the thickness part in red hat's brain is growing, I hope its benign.

Sorry for being rude, but ... This is the storry Several weeks ago, I updated RH7.3 to 8.0 version using "update all" option. Even though I didn't asked the installation program to remove any programs from my disk, I was astounded to discover that KPackage and GnoRpm have gone, and now the only way to have a GUI to package management is some impotent tool that RH have included, which gives me no choices what so ever. This was the "last straw". My conclusion is: meanwhile I'm downgrading to RH7.3 (since it takes time to learn a new distro). In the long range: if no improvement is done in subsequent versions, I'll move all the computers I administer to another distribution (even if I have to invest 3-4 weeks in learning to deal with new environment). I wrote RedHat a letter (to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and expressed my protest on the issue together with the conclusion. I envite every RH user on on this list to tell RedHat all one thinks about their policy. Who knows, maybe it will make them reconsider couple of things. -- Boris Gorelik Wed, 16/Oct/2002, 10 Heshvan 5763 ------------------------------------------------- ! Molecular Modelling Group ! !
