Hey, Ranga. | zlp1:/tmp # rpm -Uhv /tmp/popt.rpm | Preparing... ########################################### | [100%] | package popt-1.7-176.3 is intended for a i586 architecture | package popt-1.7-176.16 (which is newer than popt-1.7-176.3) is | already installed I assume you're trying to run this on an s390/s390x machine, which is, of course, wrong, as the package is obviously compiled for the x86 platform, meaning it will not run on any other architecture. Luckily enough though, vendor-micro versions of the package will be different across architectures, so you can still hold your fingers crossed and look at the s390 or s390x archive of the updates. Your best bet is probably to just run the command-line version of the online update though; it is situated in /usr/bin/online_update and supports the "--help" switch with an informative dump of all recognized options. | zlp1:/tmp # yast2 | /sbin/yast2: line 115: set_lang_from_sysconfig: command not found | /sbin/yast2: line 119: check_ncurses: command not found | You need to install yast2-ncurses to use the YaST2 text mode interface On another note - this might look as if your environment had not been properly initialized. Did you run "su root" instead of "su - root" (note the missing dash), or even "sudo /bin/sh"? Those two commands don't initialize all the environment variables for root, they just inherit from what you currently have in your $PATH and other environment variables.
