A stock install does not include the php-manual RPM. The RedHat packagers of PHP have have marked php-manual-4.0.4pl1 as depending on php-4.0.4pl1, so you can't upgrade php without also upgrading php-manual, or without removing it first. The dependency is bogus - there's no reason you should need to have a particular version of php installed in order to have its manual installed. Bottom line, if you have custom installed the php-manual RPM, remove it before attempting to apply the php updates, or use the --nodeps flag (with care) when upgrading php. -- Charlie Brady [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lead Product Developer Network Server Solutions Group http://www.e-smith.com/ Mitel Networks Corporation http://www.mitel.com/ Phone: +1 (613) 368 4376 or 564 8000 Fax: +1 (613) 564 7739 -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives by mail and http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
