<div id="RTEContent">Dear Aaron, First of all, I apologize for posting such a stupid question. However, I'd like to tell you that I google as much as I could before I post a question here, however stupid it might be to an expert like you. The reason I wanted to install apt-rpm was because it was recommended by the people who wrote a specific software. Yes, I read somewhere apt-rpm was developed for Debian, but didn't think it was limited to only Debian. I know many people, including myself, use this forum to get help from many knowledgeable people like you. Unfortunately, I am quite a Linux newbie, and after some searching on the web, if I get stuck, I post a question here as a last resort. I hope you understand. I thank you for your kind help.

Look I don't want to be mean. You have been having a hard time in the last few weeks with FC4. Why are you trying to give yourself more trouble. In FC4 updating rpms is done by yum. Why are you making things hard for yourself and trying to use apt-get which is the Debian updating tool? -- ======================================================================= The worst thing one can do is not to try, to be aware of what one wants and not give in to it, to spend years in silent hurt wondering if something could have materialized -- and never knowing. -- David Viscott ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University telephone: (210)-999-7484 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list </blockquote> </div> <hr size=1> <a href="http://us.lrd.yahoo.com/_ylc=X3oDMTFqODRtdXQ4BF9TAzMyOTc1MDIEX3MDOTY2ODgxNjkEcG9zAzEEc2VjA21haWwtZm9vdGVyBHNsawNmYw--/SIG=110oav78o/**http%3a//farechase.yahoo.com/">Yahoo!
