If I find I need a package from Fedora, I usually go here http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/ You can also use up2date, yum and apt if you have set them up to automate fetching dependencies. I use yum myself which is great. > Can I run rpm from any directory?

Does rpm have a GUI interface? Dunno. If you use apt, you can use synaptic as a frontend. Don't know about rpm. But I think you are overreacting, rpm is nice to use on the commandline once you just know a few switches. - -Andy - -- Automatic actions for USB cameras, cardreaders, memory sticks, MP3 players http://warmcat.com/usbautocam -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFA2yxBjKeDCxMJCTIRAhutAJ9cXJlvA7bIaJ8tdCg+kV6fn4xLJACZARdr o7ZENKYsKibPol+HmZlpELU= =eit/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
