    OK. Well that looks like it will fix that problem. Thanks Markus.

    That just leaves my last irksome problem with 8.0 which is the saving of a
    package listing to floppy then loading that listing onto another machine to
    duplicate an install/build.

    This was something that yast1 did happily and if you had removed some packages
    in your save listing compared to what was selected on the machine you were
    loading the list onto, it would ask what you wanted to do.. keep them, or
    remove. Yast2 on the other had adds them regardless, so you end up with nasty
    situations where you have both cups and lpdng installed and both postfix and
    sendmail installed (These are two examples, but there are many mores..)

    SuSE? Any chance of a patch to yast2?

    regards

    -Peter
