For some people (mainly people hacking away at home) there would be benefit to allowing certain repositories to fail (Such as those that do not have mirrors like Arjan's kernel tree or the European JPackage mirrors that have caused problems in the past). For installations that are focusing on stability (Not people at home hacking away) I agree with you and Seth. The command line switch that Seth described actually sounds like a very good compromise - a easy to use manual override, I didn't know that was in the works. > it becomes ugly quickly. You should see the excludes lines I'm having to run with to rip out all the Java stuff they put in FC2 to get Jpackage to work :-) Carwyn
