Thanks Scott, you can do pretty much the same thing from within kpackage
but it is still a far cry from Mandrake's Software Manager, unless I'm
missing something, which is sometimes a strong possibility, lol

Peter- If this is what you're after, I just tried this:
I mounted the 2nd CD of Mandrake 8.1and opened it in the File Manager [I
used Konqueror], then navigated to the directory called RPMs.
All the rpm titles on that disk were listed, similar to " Installable"
in Software Manager, only one disk at a time.
Crude, but effective. :-)
