pinoc-  that is a good suggestion, I will add it into the script.

travis, something which only occurred to me later...  ::)
after testing for the kdebase4 rpm we know for sure to have either a KDE4 or a KDE3 install, since there are mutually exclusive. At that point the dialog " You appear to have the KDE4 desktop..." is redundant and probably better to remove completely in order to avoid people not reading the message properly and eventually even clicking the wrong button...


+1 The lower the possibility for user error, the better.

Here is a spin-off of the new synaptic-repair script without the the functions to rebuild the rpm database, fix bbroken packages, and update the package list...  just a pure speed-test with ability to update sources.list and an all zenity GUI!

Thanks again!



PS..  I'll post a newly patched synaptic repair in the AM!
