Hi Shaolin, thanks for your reply! :) i'm going to subscribe vineplus mailing list. another question is how can i find out the dependency of my package? i know that checking out the file which is provided by a distinct rpm by running command 'rpm -qf /dir/somefile', but this only works for the file already installed in my system. for an unknown file, how can i know which package provides it? like the yum package manager, 'yum provides 'foo'' (find out which package a file belongs to). thank you very much!
