Well, they could find out what Red Hat has in each rpm we put out simply by using the rpmdb-redhat package. The problem is they don't use versions of files we include, they go bleeding-edge. Some of what they require breaks dependencies for other packages on a Red Hat system, so those need updating too (with more ximian packages) and the cycle continues. > I _can_ see how you could get false matches though, though I would need to sit > down and match them myself to be sure it happens. Sometimes you can get away with recompiling ximian's .src.rpm after only updating a few libraries, but so far I haven't found evolution-1.2 source on their ftpsite. Oddly, there was what appeared to be source for their proprietary ximian-connector on their ftp site though. I didnt' bother to check it. -- Chris Kloiber -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
