Hi,
Thanks Rick et al. I tried to urpmi kdeadmin-kpackage and I got 'no package

I haven't changed any urpmi settings (that I can recall). I also checked in 
mcc and it can't find it in the software install or remove utilities.

hmm.anything else?
Here's a direct link to D/L, though the line may get split, watch for

You'll need kdeadmin too.
Do you have all of the urpmi sources set up? Tell us which software 
sources you have setup in Software Management > Media Manager of 
Mandrake Control Center.

If not, go here and set up some sources for your distro, then try again.

I think 'urpmi kdeadmin' is enough...

Yes, there is a version for 10.1
It's called kdeadmin-kpackage, and you can urpmi it or install it from MCC.

kpackage is still available. It is in
kdeadmin-kpackage

rpmdrake also allows you to view the file list. Press the 
'Maximum Information' radio button

Hi,
Kpackage is exactly what I'm looking for. Is there a build for 10.1? I went 
looking and when I tried to install an older version I entered the 
'dependency' loop.

Thanks,

Does Kpackage do this? I know it lists installed packages and gives summary 
details about the rpm, but may not be what you are looking for.

Hi,
Can anyone recommend a package manager for 10.1 that allows me to look inside 
the rpm file to view folders and files. I liked kpackage in the older 
versions but I can't find it's equivalent.
