Hello, In our older internal releases, we build our own RPMS directory and generated the comps using an internal script "build_ks" (part of the kickstart-tools.sf.net project). In order to do the same with RH 8.0 or 9, I believe the following is necessary; please confirm. A comps.xml.in file should be generated with the groups we require. The <name> and <description> tags should be named <_name> and <_description>. Then comps.xml.in should be run through the "make" included in comps.tar.gz such that all the po files replace the names and descriptions with the proper languages. Once a comps.xml file is generated without the <packages> tag, the /usr/share/comps-extras/getfullcomps.py comps.xml command should be run to generate a new full comps.xml file which contains the <groups>, <grouphierarchy> and <packages> tags. Is this correct or is there a better way for us to roll our own internal distro? Thanks for any ideas. /Brian/ -- Brian Long | | | Americas IT Hosting Sys Admin | .|||. .|||.
