Deleting it solved the problem. The strange thing is that the file was dated Dec 20, 2004. Since I installed many packages after that date (including 5 minutes before URPMI stopped working), it didn't occur to me that it was involved. -- Shlomo Solomon http://come.to/shlomo.solomon Sent by KMail 1.7.1 (KDE 3.2.3) on LINUX Mandrake 10.1 ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
