[rhn-users] Re: Your Linux-Problem

[adam jensen <aj_linux yahoo dk>]

Hi Peter,

No I have not come as far as to updating yet...

My problem is all these pending files like python2,
rhln and so on: when I have downloaded one, I discover
that it is pending on other RPMs and so on and so on. 

I find it quite confussing... Are there any services
like in Mandrake 9.1 (which is distribution I am
runing on my laptop) that tells you that you have to
install this and this pending RPM the initial RMP?

Adam
