ok, never mind. on: http://uug.byu.edu/articles.php?article=63 i see that urpmq --auto-select shows me all packages that could be updated (*if* the update urpmi.cfg entry is correct). and urpmi --auto-select allows me to install all updates found (although i doubt if i'd do that, i'd probably want to test everything first and install the updates one at a time to make sure everything works). heh, reading the man page would have made things clear, of course. but the article makes it clearer. a prosperous new year to all. tiger -- Gerald Timothy Quimpo gquimpo*hotmail.com tiger*sni*ph http://bopolissimus.sni.ph Public Key: "gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 672F4C78" Look, my sources tell me that men and women have sex, so why should I be bothered by the evidence that it?s true? -- http://www.msnbc.com/news/994805.asp?0cv=KB20 -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
