Hi all,
Bit of a silly one this.
I have twice FTP'd cups-1.1.14-15.src.rpm. Where the hell has it been
put? Is there a standard dir?
I have searched my HD for days and it's nowhere to be seen.

Regards
Karen

It can go anywhere you want it to go. As a result, it could be anywhere.
Try:
$ locate cups-1.1.14
If you didn't already have something such as cups-1.1.14-3 installed, it
should find it and only it. If you be a billion hits, expand it:
$ locate cups-1.1.14-15.src.rpm
That should get only that one.

How did you ftp it? Did you just use ftp and get? If so it should be
in the directory from which you launched ftp (unless you did a lcd).
It's easy enough to forget which directory that was, or to forget or not
notice where you put it if you were using a browser or some graphical
ftp program. Then give find or locate a try. Just make sure you know
the difference between the two.

| Have you tried
which cups
or locate cups
 Should give you some idea on where to track it down. I would think.
