It was thus said that the Great Matt McLeod once stated: > > yum searches repositories.

No, I want to install RRDTool. I don't want to muck around with RPMs, yum, apt-get, emerge, or anything else that will keep me from what I want to do, which is getting RRDTool installed so I can get Cacti installed so I can get on with my job of monitoring a client's network. I don't mind that yum couldn't find RRDTool (well, I do because now I'm in dependancy hell) but I was amazed (confounded, speechless) that a search for "rrd" returned "gpg keys". What's up with that? -spc (And I'm guessing that the author and or maintainer of this list doesn't believe in setting *or* munging Reply-To:---a personal hate of mine, but I've seen both sides of the argument on this topic ... )
