hi people I am using yum-2.0.5-1 on FC1 and when I run yum-arch on a directory full of symbolic links to other directories - it works! Strange thing is I just read the yum-arch man page and saw that the default behaviour is NOT to follow symbolic links. Has the default behaviour changed and the man page not updated? or can someone explain why my yum-arch is creating all of the necessary headers by following my sym links? thanks pantz -- Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes ...
