I guess this is one of those situations where neither solution is optimal. Sticking with 1 approach might not be such a bad idea indeed. <RANT> Pity RPM doesn't handle merging of configs, not that that always works. (Tru64 installs 3 copies of a config file, for example if you have a config called /etc/rc.config, there will also be 2 other files called /etc/.new..rc.config and /etc/.proto..rc.config -- the upgrade scripts use this to do a 3 way merge of changes in your edited config). </RANT> ______________________________________________________________________ The OpenPKG Project www.openpkg.org Developer Communication List [EMAIL PROTECTED]
