I found that a lot of new 8.2 packages stuck around after upgrading to 9. I wrote a script to find out what packages to "rpm -Uvh --oldpackage" from the DVD. You need to have rpm-python installed for this to work.

Very nice: I have 25 such packages on my system. Thanks, Henry [BTW the script is an attachment to Mr. Oakley's post. HCH]
