Let me make sure I understand...I type the above, and it shows me this: The following packages contain unixodbc: libunixODBC2-devel unixODBC-gui-qu unixODBC unixODBC-gui-gtk libunixODBC2. So I install those packages before all the rest? Won't that create a ton of dependancy problems, installing just those few before everything else?
