I added a new flag to yum-arch (-l) which makes yum-arch use symlinks of rpms if it finds them. The reason I didn't make it the default is b/c I make use of it ignoring symlinks by default b/c otherwise I'll see a bunch of dupe pkg lists (has to do with the hierarchy of my installation tree) anyway - this way you get what you wanted w/just a small shell script modification. yum-arch -l dir that will do it. its been checked into cvs - the next daily and/or release will have it. speaking of releases I'd like to plan on putting out 0.9.3 this weekend. I want to sift through a few more patches and get them put in first. thanks -sv --=-fGexU1QBKB1ovOC8JG2H Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQA9r5Sc1Aj3x2mIbMcRAqHBAJ970122SX+FKWeO6olEg6LtyfhUlQCeLsab 79Wl0QyHk5YFDKq3m3vkT+s= =U4iJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-fGexU1QBKB1ovOC8JG2H--
