Why do you even bother replying to folks?
Patrick is actually being a lot more polite than this list's members used to be when peoples first reaction to a problem is to mail the list. RTMF has not been seen here for some time but it ought to used more often. There are many easily available sources of information (>man rpm, anyone?), and the list should be for those who have tried the normal sources first. the many long treads about quite simple stuff that are repeated every few weeks or months just wastes bandwidth and time (mine at least). Patrick is, after all, more responsive and considerate than me - he at least repliesreplies. I tend to ignore posts that require an RTFM. Terence
