restricted extras

[blumagic]

All,

I have just finished installing Karmic on new computer. I have already installed java jre, flash plugin, and unrar/rar. My question is can I still install restricted extras to get addition applications installed, without corrupting my apps already installed? Or should I just manually install the remaining items from restricted extras manually?

thanks,

blu.....

You can still install restricted extras, the package manager will take note of what you have installed and only install what you haven't already got from that meta package.

Howefield,

I do appreciate your prompt response. I was thinking along similar lines, but didnt want to have to spend more time reinstalling if this wasnt the case. This is much appreciated.

thanks,
