Just mirror the needed directories (e.g. by using a wget cron job), symlink the needed rpms and recreate the repository. It is already worth the trouble, if you have more than one installation. In any case in order to acces the mentioned places, somebody must keep such a repository up to date, be it yourself or someone else. -- Axel.Thimm@physik.fu-berlin.de _______________________________________________ RPM-List mailing list http://lists.freshrpms.net/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
