Most complete ARCHIVES.gz file online?
What is the most complete ARCHIVES.gz file online? I use pin a lot and like to also have all the programs included that are online. The one that comes with the CDs does not hold all the files.

Sorry, that file does not have the info ARCHIVES.gz has. I use pin also to look at other information, like wher a certain file is, even if the program is not installed, licence info, README files and a lot more. houghi -- Quote correct (NL) http://www.briachons.org/art/quote/ Zitiere richtig (DE) http://www.afaik.de/usenet/faq/zitieren Quote correctly (EN) http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html

I want more then just a list of rpm's. I do not just want a list of
README's, I want the actual README. I also want to directly read the
description.
First an example of a non-installed rpm, bsd-games. Below that the info
of an installed rpm, slrn. As you will see, pin gives a LOT more
information then the info that is available in Contents-i386.gz. Something
fun to do is the following:
# pin License:|awk -FLicense: '{print $2}'|sort|uniq -c|sort -nr|less
Now try that with your file. ;-)
I have snipped a LOT in the following examples.
# pin bsd-games
pin 0.29 - package info for bsd-games

Ah, now I read what asked "most complete" not "most up to date"... Ah well, you have something to do now :) -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless
