I am experiencing a bug in kudzu (bugzilla 77382) (RedHat 8.0) which is causing my
cdrom drive to be unmounted I need to apply a more recent version of kudzu.
I downloaded the latest version from the RedHat ftp site (rawhide) and when I did rpm
-U --test it had dependency on a more recent version of hwdata. A rpm -U --test on
hwdata had a dependency on kernel-pcmcia..... , so finally rpm -U --test on
kernel-pcmcia was in turn dependent on hwdata !!
I have included the screen output below for full details.
My questions are :
1. hwdata and kernel-pcmcia are dependant on each other. I assume I will have to force
the install of one to ignore dependencies and then install the other ?
2. I have installed rpms before but normally they are applications. These rpms are
more system related and I am concerned that installing them may break other
dependencies. Any ideas/recommendations ?
3. How easy is it to back out these changes should I need to ?
Regards,
Trevor
The following are the details of the packages that I am intending to install.
