+<PRE>dear buddies,
+I have talked about it earlier and the reply was there at

+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; No, simply because there's no need for a tool like that; easyurpmi was
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; mainly used by Mandriva users to add the PLF repos, in Mageia PLF is
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; replaced by the Tainted repo, which is added (but disabled) by
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; default.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Simply no need? Maybe I'm misreading you or missing something but this
+</I>&gt;<i> comes
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; across as really arrogant in presuming what others (not you!) do or don't
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; need,
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; and how and why people have &quot;mainly&quot; used easyurpmi in the past. How do
+</I>&gt;<i> you
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; know?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I know about the &quot;main&quot; use case of easyurpmi, from 2-3years of daily
+</I>&gt;<i> visits to the Mandriva forum, search for easyurpmi and see if the word
+</I>&gt;<i> &quot;PLF&quot; won't be in the same thread in a lot of cases.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Was there a poll that I didn't get included in? I've always found
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; easyurpmi very convenient and not just for plf. I guess I didn't realize
+</I>&gt;<i> how
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; atypical I was.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Whether you're typical or atypical, I leave that to you.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Using easyurpmi to just add the official repositories in Mandriva is
+</I>&gt;<i> an &quot;atypical&quot; use case, not the regular/main use case, given the fact
+</I>&gt;<i> there's already an integrated, installed by default, tool to do the
+</I>&gt;<i> job.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Sure, it's good to have an easy way to add the repos on a headless
+</I>&gt;<i> server, but I think users running headless servers are cli-savvy
+</I>&gt;<i> enough to know how to use urpmi.addmedia, (with help of
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://mirrors.mageia.org/distrib">http://mirrors.mageia.org/distrib</A> , it becomes a matter of
+</I>&gt;<i> copy/paste).
