The bugzilla URL would be nice. On the use of qstat: qstat/qsub and friends have been around in Unix/Linux queuing systems for some decades now, and it is expected by users of these systems to find the tools under qstat and not dqs-qstat, nqs-qstat or torque-qstat. I'm not sure how to fix this issue, but renaming qstat in torque is bad. Given that not many systems will run quake and a queuing managing system in parallel maybe Conflicts: is the lesser evil. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
