If so and rpm -ql doesn't show it try reinstalling or upgrading over it and if needed force it. rpm -ivh --force package also rpm -Uvh is to upgrade rpm -ivh is to install ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vikram Khurana" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, August 23, 2002 2:38 PM Subject: [luau] rpm problem > Howdy, > > When I do a rpm -ql <package1> to see the files installed by the rpm, I > get a message saying the package is not installed. > > However when I do rpm -Uvh <package1> to install it, it says package is > already installed, which is true, because the package is indeed > installed. > > Why is it then rpm -ql is giving me the faulty message? > > Thanks for your time, > Vikram > > _______________________________________________ > LUAU mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://videl.ics.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/luau > _______________________________________________ LUAU mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://videl.ics.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/luau
