Not that it is your fault of course! > Hi John, Thanks for pointing that out. I have a new script for the SL 3x errata and it looks like it has a bug in it. I have to laugh, because it even made it into the errata e-mail I sent out. I'd never looked at the arch of a src.rpm, but I just ran that on all the vendor's src.rpm's. It looks like ppc has the most, followed by i386, noarch, and then there is a wide smattering of all sorts of different arches that they say they are. Not that it means much. But that is interesting.
