Maybe he meant to ask how to force all your systems to install a new package. A common way to solve this problem is: Let all your systems have a local package installed, say "mylocal". Update "mylocal" when you want, add a "Requires: gimp" if you want to pull in "gimp" the next update check on all systems. Of course, you can have different "mylocal"-type packages, for different system profiles. -- -- Jos Vos <jos@xxxxxx> -- X/OS Experts in Open Systems BV | Phone: +31 20 6938364 -- Amsterdam, The Netherlands | Fax: +31 20 6948204
