How hard is it to type "urpmi <package name>"....?
That's the easy bit. Finding out that urpmi exists is the difficult bit for a newbie - it seems to be rarely mentioned in books or magazine articles on linux, which is a great shame as it is one of Mandrake's best features. I struggled with tarballs for months before I discovered how easy it was to use urpmi!
