mention package groups as a parameter along with ks file ?

linux brainstack linux.brainstack at gmail.com
Wed Jul 2 07:16:06 UTC 2008


There is no such file :(
Under /tmp i cant see such file.

Regarding one package per line - i had added sed to replace , by \n so that
should take care of it.

Any clues on why the file is not created ?

Thanks !
