Description prabirm 1999-08-11 17:58:01 UTC

The GUI RPM manager "glint" inside "control-panel" was
really very very useful in RedHat 5.2, but missing from
RawHide. Its difficult now to find uninstalled packages
and install them selectively. Please re-include this
utility if possible.

Of course there are packages like "kpackage" and "gnorpm"
but "glint" was more intuitive and user-friendly.

Regards,
Prabir

glint was removed in favor of gnorpm. Sorry.
