Re: speaking of fixed.....maybe not

OK, I think once again I fixed the double colon issue. This is a hack, but it
seems to work... The first set of :: I replace with a - so RPM will understand
it. If there are more I remove them and everything following (assuming that
it is all part of the preceding package name).

I do not know off the top of my head why the --nolocaldeps is not working...
Possiably just too stressful for perl?? lol I think for now I will undocument
this feature and make it an unsupported item that we can play with.

Check to see what version you are running... I was hoping that 1.0.5pre8 fixed
the last bug (dependancy not seeing itself)...

I am uploading 1.0.5pre9 now that hopefully has a fix for the multiple double
colon issue...
