Repeat my observation: if the two lines above are really two separate
lines, then to the best of my understanding of shell operation, the
"rpm" command never gets its argument, since the argument is on
another separate line.
I'm not questioning the three separate rpm commands. Just checked the
"original post", the lines did not get broken by my newsreader. If I
try something like this, I get
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ rpm -Uh --nosignature
rpm: no packages given for install
with no chance to specify $SOURCE_PATH or anything.
Maybe what you posted is not what you really are doing? Just
different enough to confuse me.
