[ATrpms-devel] smart & medley (was: kernel 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5smp)

[Paulo Cavalcanti]

Hi, Axel

I believe you. In fact I had a config and a config.old. I saved them, but
they are not quite readable.

Another thing, synaptic complains about the contents of flash.list, and
again only shows atrpms. If I rename flash.list to flash.list.save and
restart synaptic, them all the channels appear.

Yesterday I downloaded xmms-jack via synaptic. The rpm is saved in

/var/cache/apt/archives as

xmms-jack_0.17-1.rhfc5.ccrma_i386.rpm

Since I like to keep all the rpms I download, do you know if  there is
a way of making it keep the original name of the rpm,
without any "_" ?

yum may be not the eigth wonder of the world, but at least it is easy to
configure.

Thank you,

/Paulo Roma.
