First, I have problems tracking your messages since you use a mailer that doesn't support the headers necessary for threaded display of mails. That's kind of insufficient for a high-traffic mailing-list. Second, you don't autowrap your lines at around 72 characters, which makes them difficult to read on terminals and upon replying. Third, it is still not clear when exactly that happens what you describe. Your description should be more detailed rather than complaining that no one answers to your messages. The first tiny window that opens when you run redhat-config-packages as an _ordinary_ user (!) is consolehelper gtk (from the "usermode" package) which asks you for the superuser password. If it is that window that is terminates immediately, try re-installing both redhat-config-packages (from your CDs) and "usermode". If you mean a different window (I think you've mentioned calculation of dependencies), I don't understand why you don't get any error output in the parent terminal, like a Python traceback or a segfault. Fourth, consider verifying your set of installed packages with "rpm -Va" or as I recommend regularly: # rpm -qa | xargs -n 1 -t rpm -V &> rpm-Va.txt # less rpm-Va.txt The flags in RPM's output are explained in the manual. - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+Q8940iMVcrivHFQRAmZ7AJ4pyfqwfcu9pLVW+WrsT0SWWqcySgCfYNMI vLa8FUSe7FSFkXpCaMcS+jU= =RfUF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
