To which the rpm database comes up with Amarok-1.4.6 only.
this makes NO sense, "Amarok...", *unless* your database is totally corrupt.
Bash expanded '*' to the contents of Don's current working directory. Don had a file or directory called Amarok in this directory, and this is the only item in the directory that matched a package name in the RPM database. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
