Re: lets talk about dependancies again...

Very weird indeed... I don't have a problem with the fact that your network
seems to be responding faster then mine (maybe someone was downloading
Warewulf (a large cluster toolkit) at the time), but what bothers me was the
--provides took 2x longer then the --test install! That just did not make
sence to me.
