RPM based, works with a common set of RPMs (from the same src rpm) (even on different Oses or version of an OS) and uses (if you want to) a common binary repository of RPMs that may need installing. Quite nice. Regards, Simon _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
