Just use both. Wait, don't tell me, the new Xd doesn't allow this?
Hmmmm $ rpm -ql cron /usr/share/doc/packages/cron /usr/share/doc/packages/cron/cron_to_cronie.README Hmmmm ============================================================= $ more /usr/share/doc/packages/cron/cron_to_cronie.README package cron 4.2 is only auxiliary package needed for proper renaming package cron to cronie usefull links : http://en.opensuse.org/Cron_replace http://en.opensuse.org/Cron_rename ============================================================== Neither of those two URLs are about the the issues this thread has been discussing. So if I remove the package cron its not going to make much difference? $ rpm -q --whatrequires cron cronie-1.4.8-50.1.2.x86_64 logrotate-3.8.7-4.8.1.x86_64 That's lame! Why should they depend on a README file? Of course some dependencies are circular $ rpm -q --whatrequires cronie cron-4.2-50.1.2.x86_64 And removing a README file causes a lot more to be removed as well $ rpm -q --whatrequires logrotate syslog-service-2.0-772.1.2.noarch mcelog-1.0pre3.6e4e2a000124-19.4.1.x86_64 xdm-1.1.11-126.1.x86_64 kdm-4.11.14-3.4.x86_64 All of which seems rather strange. But then I've grown used to the 'requirements' in openSuse being odd. -- /"\ \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML Mail / \ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
