Hello, I'm using xinetd (from source), but when I try to remove inetd rpm yells at me: % rpm -e inetd error: removing these packages would break dependencies: inetd is needed by ftpd-0.3.2-51 xinetd is already running and has replaced inetd just fine. Can I just forcefully remove inetd and it leave ftpd alone? Or is it going to bust anything? -- -Brian Clark | PGP is spoken here: 0xE4D0C7C8 Please, DO NOT carbon copy me on list replies.
You should be able to remove inetd. The packages are probably not
quilt to accept xinetd as a replacement for inetd. I encountered a
similar problem replacing sendmail with postfix.
