I no longer use livna so I can't look at it on this machine here at home, but on my office machine which I did look at this am before I posted that, the various channels it sets up are for the base url plus some things like debug and the like. In the GUI 'Edit/Mirrors' window, there are 4 or 5 mirrors listed for Livna. I spent some time a year ago trying to figure out what Kyum was doing with Livna. It was ultimately the conclusion of various members of this list that Livna was following the correct syntax in setting up their repo list, and that it was Kyum that was mangling it - essentially, what would happen is, if you opened Kyum and enabled one of the Livna repos, Kyum would rewrite the livna.repo file and wipe out the listed mirrors - something along those lines. I had written a bug report to the Kyum author who had maintained that the livna.repo file didn't follow the correct syntax, and that his program wasn't broken. So far as I know, that has never been fixed, but, I don't use Kyum any more. So, after spending a lot of time on that, and then spending a lot of time getting Smart running on my machine, I chanced upon Livna's nice script, which did a great job of configuring Livna to work in Smart quite nicely. And then, you wrote that statement this am and that's what set me off. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA
