I like RPM because I like the database that is created by the system for future uninstalls, upgrades, etc. I've used checkinstall when installing from source to create an RPM and update the RPM database. That works fine when I am installing a program for the first time, but is not enough when upgrading. Right now, I want to upgrade mozilla 1.0.1 to 1.2.1, and gnumeric 0.67 to 1.0.15 or something. Neither have RH7.x RPMS available so I want to upgrade from source. any suggestions? -- Arthur S. Alexion <arthur@alexion.com> Arthur S.
