Hi,

Thank you for your answer,
I fixed my parsing problem, httpd version number was not concerned.

In fact that was a problem with a package name returned by the Jpackage
repository (java-1.5.0-sun-compat), as i was excluding to expect any
version number in a package name... my regexp didn't like it.
obviously, i don't like java ...

Thx :)
