Lenz, Of the packages listed, the only one of concern to me was the ODBC package. Since this is a fresh RH 8.0 install, I was also going to upgrade the MySQL ODBC driver. By using the command line syntax from your previous message ($ rpm -qRp MySQL-server-4.0.12-0.i386.rpm), I was able to install all of the RPM's that I downloaded from MySQL without any warnings. I also downloaded and installed the latest ODBC drivers and have been running all weekend.
Thanks for your time and trouble! :-) Dave -----Original Message----- From: Lenz Grimmer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, March 23, 2003 5:36 AM To: Christensen, Dave Cc: 'mysql users' Subject: RE: 4.0.12 RPM's -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, On Fri, 21 Mar 2003, Christensen, Dave wrote: > I downloaded the RPM's from the Chicago mirror site and saved the > files in a directory "/data/downloads/mysql".

OK, now I see you problem. The packages listed on the right have been linked against an older version of MySQL. If you try to upgrade to the latest version of MySQL (which includes a newer version of the libmysqlclient library), it would also replace the package that includes the library needed for these packages. As a workaround, you could try to omit the MySQL-shared package (it's not required for the client and server package anyway). This should leave the old MySQL client library installed on your system, thus resolving the above dependency problem.
