If you already have nspr installed, then you want "yum update nspr" instead. > ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve: > nspr is needed by (installed) nspr-devel-4.7.3-2.el5.i386 > nspr is needed by (installed) nspr-devel-4.7.3-2.el5.i386 You appear to also have nspr-devel installed, and it depends on the matching version of nspr. IIRC "yum update" will pull in the dependencies for you (or you could do "yum update nspr\*"). > I have found the following nspr rpms on my system: > > find /var/cache/yum -name "nspr*" That lists what packages yum has cached data for, not what is installed on your system. "rpm -qa nspr\*" will list what nspr* RPMs you have installed. -- Chris Adams <[email protected]> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
