I have 5 identical copies of kernel-2.4.9-13 on my Redhat 7.2. This was a
result of a bug (Bugzilla number 55633) in up2date for Redhat 7.2. If one
had (I had) earlier versions of the same package (in this case, the kernel)
installed, then each time up2date ran it installed yet another version

Yeah. This technique I had thought of. Scared me slightly. I just
wondered whether there wasn't an easier way.

rpm -e --allmatches kernel
Maybe add --justdb as well, and afterwards do a single install --justdb.
Bye,
Excellent idea! I will try that.
