I installed the Ximian rpms on an earlier version of Redhat. It was very easy to install and ran well...however, just try and remove the damn things. The Ximian folks have provided a one way street. They wouldn't even answer my question about how to remove them. It's a very tedious process that ended up breaking a lot of Redhat stuff before I was done. I had to go through the pain since I couldn't upgrade to the next Redhat version without removing them. I'll never put those rpms back on any system I manage! -- Gerry "The lyfe so short, the craft so long to learne" Chaucer -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
