Thank you for the prompt response:) Just one more thing: is it possible to get the same information as yum list updates? I'd like to get a feed showing the available updates, but actually running repo-rss against http://download.opensuse.org/update/10.3/ yelds a different package list than using the above yum command. In fact I admit that I don't know how yum get the update list... thanks a lot, cheers Francesco seth vidal-3 wrote: > > > On Thu, 2008-01-31 at 05:32 -0800, Francesco Vivoli wrote: >> Hi all >> >> I have installed yum on a Suse 10.3 box.
