Thanks.. Was there logic behind this? I mean, when Redhat removed a bunch of rpms like php4-snmp in RHEL3U3 then brought it back in RHEL4, I switched to SLES due to a lack of faith.
The package management system was replaced by its next generation, to satisfy needs we identified in the past. (There have been quite some long discussions here which I will not repeat.)
We had not originally thought people would miss the installation_sources helper tool.

I would say the fact that they're bringing somethign back, specifically because peopel asked for it, shows they're listening. What was missed in this case was perhaps asking beforehand if anyone thought they'd miss it before deciding to remove a package. -- Mike Marion-Unix SysAdmin/Staff IT Engineer-http://www.qualcomm.com [Desperate for a doughnut, Homer opens his "Emergency Procedures" manual to reveal a cutout with some crumbs and a note...] Homer: [reads note] "Dear Homer, I.O.U. one emergency donut.
