Thanks for the help. Apparently 'urpmi' is the real tool under
'rpmdrake' (the avoid-the-evil-command-line Mandrake GUI for package
installation). Boy, wouldn't it be nice if we had a search engine that
could take a description of what we want to do, and suggest a list of
possibly interesting manual pages, html links, PDF documents, etc. I've
sometimes spent days with Yahoo/Google scanning thousands of irrelavent
pages to find the info I want. I've gotten a lot more useful info about
linux in general on this mailing list by accident than I have
searching. Unfortunately, I have limited time to deal with email lists.
Maybe we need a search engine like Yahoo, which only finds linux-related
documentation pages (I know I'm dreaming).
