It *used* to be <he says, tapping his cane for emphasis> that leaving base checked (though unchecking various things in the "Base" section" wouldn't pull in X.

I would almost guarantee it would pull in some X stuff. To be honest though, I have unchecked it for so long now, that I'm not sure. (I do know if you try to uninstall it, it will want to uninstall over 200 packages--someone on forums pointed out that it will, among others, uninstall firefox as one might want to print from firefox, I guess.) Grr, I always forget which command tells you what packages a particular package requires. Ah, rpm -qR. I would almost guarantee, though I don't have time to go through it now, that some of those dependencies would pull in some X files. In this case, however, the only reason I mentiond it was because when one is going through package selection dialog,it is selected by default (which makes sense, I'm not arguing that point), but is out of site, making it easy to overlook. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Riley: Buffy . . .
