Hi, my name is alan, i am a french student.
I think urpmi can be very useful for RULE
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/cooker/urpmi.html
What's it?
urpmi - rpm wrapper handling dependencies making installs easier
Just give to urpmi the package you want and it will install it, taking
packages either from cdrom, ftp or local repository of rpms. The nice thing
is that dependencies are handled. It even handles multi-cd (asks you politely
to enter the cd labeled ``xxx'').
Have you heard about apt-get? Well, urpmi does the same for rpms :)
You can compare rpm vs urpmi with insmod vs modprobe or dpkg vs apt-get.
