[Gllug] rpm-get issues

[Jonathan Harker]

Greetings

I know debian and apt-get is completely cool and tops, but I have Mandrake at 
home, and I thought I'd have a go at getting rpm-get to work. I can configure 
it for using various mirrors, but when it connects to the ftp server it 
compains that it can't find the directories it needs. At one point I had it 
pointing to the correct directories, but it then couldn't find the list file 
(RPM-list.bz or something similar).

Is there some magical incantation I have forgotten to utter?

If anyone has successfully used rpm-get, could they tell me the correct ftp 
addresses I need, or what I might be doing wrong? I have rpm-get 1.5

Is this even worth pursuing, or is rpm-get a load of dingo's kindeys? It's 
just I'm getting really sick of never ending rpm dependency trees. Novel at 
first, now a real pita.

Cheers
