GnoRPM 0.9
james - July 17th 1999, 03:40 EST

Gnome RPM is a graphical front end to the Redhat package management system. In that way, it is similar to Redhat's Glint. However, Gnome RPM is written in C, uses the GTK+ widget set, and doesn't call the rpm executable for installs, which means that it is faster, and the interface should be more responsive. Gnorpm also has rpmfind functionality which allows you to get an RPM that is best suited to your system and make sure you download all the RPMs it depends on that you don't have.

Changes: Fixed the install dialog so that it can do everything the GLINT available packages dialog could do, and more. Changed the code used for doing rpmfind searches to a more memory efficient version, which substantially reduces gnorpm's memory usage. There are also many new translations, and some other bug fixes.
