Have I mentioned that I hate it because it has no easy way to report what packages need updating for a script, rather than a human? I am spoiled by Debian and derivatives: they have people who /don't/ want to spend time administering their computers do packaging. It makes a nice change from RH derivatives where everything feels like it is half done by hand, and half done by programmers fighting off rabid monkeys. > No kidding. Ubuntu wants python everywhere? Gimme a break. Python, however, isn't responsible for the author of yum being filled with crack, and unable to handle errors nicely. It has plenty of hate, but that one isn't one of them. Daniel
