Okay,
Maybe I'm missing something intuitively obvious here, but how does one upgrade
rpm *with* rpm?
$ rpm -Uvh rpm-4.0-4.i386.rpm
only packages with major numbers = 3 are supported by this version of RPM
error: rpm-4.0-4.i386.rpm cannot be installed
$ rpm -Uvh --force
Danger, danger, Will Robinson! This can lead to all sorts of fun.
1) BE SURE TO KEEP A COPY OF YOUR RPM 3.0! You may very well need it.
2) You *can* download a copy of RPM 4.0 that was packaged with 3.0 at
www.rpm.org -- I have yet to successfully upgrade, however, and I've
*tried*. If
go to the updates directory for RedHat 6.2, there you will find RPM-3.0.5
RPMs (in RPM 3 format! ). Install those, then you'll be able to install
RPMs packaged in V4.
