I've found: 1. GnomeRPM doesn't give me the option of installing required packages after it checks the RPM file I want to install. 2. It's GUI is cumbersome and unintuitive (sorry, another subjective judgement!) 3. I can't figure out how to use the search function. 'rpmdrake', on the other hand, has always done what I've wanted with a minimal amount of effort. So we all know which one I use.... - Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" on the first line of the message body to discuss-request at blu.org (Subject line is ignored).
