  These are packages built to be compatible with 7.2 and i686. I don't 
know of anyone who's said they sucessfully installed them with 7.1
http://www.mandrakeforum.com/article.php3?sid=20001221005311  has a 
comment on how to rebuild them for i586, if that's also an issue.

Hi Adrian. Do a "man RPM" from a shell. Lots of options there including:

--nodeps (will install despite dependency problems)

--force (will install over top of existing)

and don't forget:

rpm -q name of package (to see what version you currently have)

rpm -e name of package (to uninstall a current version)

Read the man results carefully, it will help a lot! ;-)

Are you trying to upgrade while in X?  If so, you must drop to level 3
and then do your install.
