Hi,

as did RedHat before, the Mandrake guys introduced RPM 4.x with LM 8.0.
Unfortunately, the rpm 4.x binary they're shipping with LM 8.0 can not be
installed with rpm 3.x. I didn't find yet a smooth way to upgrade to rpm 4.x.
Even the src.rpm 4.x files didn't help, because you need rpm 4.x to unpack them
- seems to be pretty much a chicken-egg problem. RedHat offered an rpm 3.x with
the capability to handle rpm 4.0 packages. Is there something similar in the LM
world?
Any comments are apreciated.

Christian
