If rpm asked me if I wanted to read the README every time I installed a package, I'd claw my eyes out. rpm has always worked in a fully automated fashion, i.e. no prompting for EULAs, etc. "rpm -qld mailman" tells me where all the docs are, thankyouverymuch. ;-) -- Dan Young <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Multnomah ESD - Technology Services 503-257-1562 ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
