Looking back through the thread, it looks like you have used the -i (install) flag to rpm as well as the --force and --nodeps flags at variuos times to try and get this to work. First off: never ever use --force. e.g. If you use -i, rpm doesn't bother checking if that package is allready installed, or if certain files are conflicting with other allready installed packages, and you will end up with multiple copies of the same package installed, or multiple packages owning the same files. I have been on the rpm-devel mail list, from time to time, and the only method of rectifying this error is to uninstall all copies of the package and then start again, telling yourself that it was silly to use --force in the first place. You seem to be lucky, in that the packages you have installed twice, have different version numbers, so you should be able to uninstall those (rpm -e) perhaps with a --nodeps or --force, and then reupgrade the new packages to replace the files that were removed by removing the old version numbers..... yuk. -Colin -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
