Huh? When I install a package, the indicator goes to ***, but it never tries to reinstall that package again until a newer version appears. In fact, if I *want* to reinstall it, I have to remove it first. "=" is more meant for special occasions, such as when there is a newer version but you don't want to upgrade yet. At least that's what it's supposed to do. Somebody else will have to figure out why yours keeps on reinstalling. -- ************** MICHAEL SCOTT ORR <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ***************** * * 1405 NE 56th Street, Seattle, WA 98105 USA * English * * * Tel: +1 (206) 522-9627, fax: 328-6209 * Russki * * * * Esperanto * ***************** (Insert silly quote here) ************************ -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
