Also, from the tone of your reply, it would seem as if you took my mail to be more demanding than it actually was. Frustrated, yes, demanding, no. My experiences with Freshrpms/Dag/Dries (read: RPMForge, aka "y'all") have been uniformly excellent and so it's always a bit off-putting to find a package that doesn't live up to those experiences. I was unaware of Axel's Trac RPMs, primarily because I have been extremely reluctant to mix ATrpms with RPMForge, as in the past the conflicts between the two have lead to system horkage. I am using his Trac and clearsilver packages and ignoring the rest of the updates that ATrpms provides to avoid such horkage, at least for the time being. As to the solutions, perhaps the breaking out of the python-clearsilver bindings from the actual clearsilver package is unnecessary, at least if Axel's packages are any indicator. -- ---------- Doug Stewart Systems Administrator/Web Applications Developer Lockheed Martin Advanced Technology Labs [email protected]
