I don't think this is an appropriate question for this mailing list, though I will answer your question.
The problem is with dependancies and RPMs ... The first error you got obviously was because you already had a previous version of OpenSSL installed. The second error occurred because there are dependancies that other programs have on that original version of OpenSSL. You shouldn't have a problem upgrading as the old and new versions should be binary compatible, use the command rpm -Uvh --nodeps .... the --nodeps will tell RPM to ignore dependancies you may have to add a --force if you get any remaining conflicting files ... this is strictly a RPM question, not about OpenSSL... -B Salvatore Buccoliero wrote: > Hi Openssl users, > > I'm having problems installing openssl-0.9.6b-2 on a redhat 7.2 system. > I have currently this Openssl packet installed: > [root@rufux /root]# rpm -qa | grep ssl > openssl-0.9.6-3 > > When i try to install openssl-0.9.6b-2.i386.rpm: > [root@rufux freeswan]# rpm -i openssl-0.9.6b-2.i386.rpm > file /usr/bin/openssl from install of openssl-0.9.6b-2 conflicts with file > from package openssl-0.9.6-3 > file /usr/share/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt from install of openssl-0.9.6b-2 > conflicts with file from package openssl-0.9.6-3 > file /usr/share/ssl/openssl.cnf from install of openssl-0.9.6b-2 conflicts > with file from package openssl-0.9.6-3 > > When i try to upgrade: > rpm -U openssl-0.9.6b-8.i386.rpm > error: failed dependencies: > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by bind-utils-9.1.0-10 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by slrn-0.9.6.4-2 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by cyrus-sasl-1.5.24-17 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by links-0.95-2 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by openldap-2.0.7-14 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by autofs-3.1.7-14 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by nss_ldap-149-1 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by openldap-clients-2.0.7-14 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by pine-4.33-8 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by sendmail-8.11.2-14 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by fetchmail-5.7.4-4 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by gq-0.4.0-2 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by lynx-2.8.4-9 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by python-1.5.2-30 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by mutt-1.2.5i-9 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by openssh-2.5.2p2-5 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by openssh-clients-2.5.2p2-5 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by pidentd-3.0.12-4 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by balsa-1.1.1-3 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by samba-common-2.0.7-36 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by samba-client-2.0.7-36 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by stunnel-3.13-3 > libcrypto.so.1 is needed by openssh-server-2.5.2p2-5 > libssl.so.1 is needed by slrn-0.9.6.4-2 > libssl.so.1 is needed by links-0.95-2 > libssl.so.1 is needed by openldap-2.0.7-14 > libssl.so.1 is needed by autofs-3.1.7-14 > libssl.so.1 is needed by nss_ldap-149-1 > libssl.so.1 is needed by openldap-clients-2.0.7-14 > libssl.so.1 is needed by pine-4.33-8 > libssl.so.1 is needed by sendmail-8.11.2-14 > libssl.so.1 is needed by fetchmail-5.7.4-4 > libssl.so.1 is needed by gq-0.4.0-2 > libssl.so.1 is needed by lynx-2.8.4-9 > libssl.so.1 is needed by python-1.5.2-30 > libssl.so.1 is needed by mutt-1.2.5i-9 > libssl.so.1 is needed by balsa-1.1.1-3 > libssl.so.1 is needed by samba-common-2.0.7-36 > libssl.so.1 is needed by samba-client-2.0.7-36 > libssl.so.1 is needed by stunnel-3.13-3 > > What am i doing wrong here ? > > Regards > Salvatore Buccoliero > > ______________________________________________________________________ > OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org > User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
