I just noticed a minor thing with the 3.0.7 release (which my scripts didn't pick up before because I'd not turned up the verbosity level high enough)... 3.0.5 contains nedit-5.4-1 but in 3.0.7 this seems to have reverted to 5.3-4.1 (as the vendor shipped), though 30x/SRPMS/ contains the newer nedit-5.4-1.src.rpm package (well obviously)...

So I'm *assuming* that this is an accident rather than a deliberate reversion. Apologies for not spotting this before. This is the only package (that we install) that shows a lower revision for 3.0.7 than in 3.0.5 If it is intentional the comment about using nedit-5.4-1 should probably be corrected. -- Jon Peatfield, Computer Officer, DAMTP, University of Cambridge Mail: [log in to unmask] Web: http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/
