I've got the latest Mandrake rpm, rpm-python-4.2.2-10mdk.i586.rpm, and it's definitely broken. I've posted a question on the MandrakeExpert list but there's been no reply. I have a nightly cron job to keep the file lists up to date. With that and a fast mirror, "urpmi doodaa" is really quick and painless. Yum has a nicer syntax than urpmi/urpme/urpm... It's also slower in general, sometimes taking many minutes to resolve dependencies. I've also found a urpmi mirror that gives me much better bandwidth than for yum. Having been forced back to using urpmi, I don't presently see any reason to continue using yum. Regards, David
