Hi !

I have been away for the Christmas holidays and did not manage to read 
the news before. I checked the errors in the web pages and in the 
script; and indeed there are mistakes.

Unfortunately I will not have the time to fix that before next year (on 
3rd of january by which time I should upload 1.2 (c31)). I am leaving 
again in a couple of hours.




For your first question, the french and english download pages link to 
the same rpm or tgz file -> you can download from the french page. It is 
going to work just as fine.

For your second question, try the following as root :

$ rpm -e pyvon (this removes the installed package There shoud be 
nothing left in your /usr/local/pyvon directory)

$ rpm -ivh --force pyvo*.rpm (to install the new version from scratch 
without update)

This may fix your problem. I do not know why but the update does not 
seem to work.

There are differences between 1.0a and 1.1 in the 'include files'. The 
1.1 version will not work with the 1.0a 'include files'


Thanks to Daniel for helping out.


Happy new Year and happy poving to everyone.
