I've been trying to work my way through the SeaWolf errata,
http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/rh71-errata.html, and
have started repeatedly running into what i call a reciprocal
"failed dependencies" error on several of the updates there.
I'm using rpm-4.0.2-8 and have had no problem with most of
the update packages on that page.
Does anyone know if i should use *NOT* use "force" as in
rpm -Fvh --force <rpm-file>
when i come across this error in situations like this?:
[root@vcserver1 errata]# rpm -q up2date
up2date-2.5.2-1
[root@vcserver1 errata]# rpm -Fvh up2date-2.5.4-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
up2date = 2.5.2 is needed by up2date-gnome-2.5.2-1
[root@vcserver1 errata]# rpm -Uvh up2date-2.5.4-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
up2date = 2.5.2 is needed by up2date-gnome-2.5.2-1
[root@vcserver1 errata]# rpm -Uvh up2date-gnome-2.5.4-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
up2date = 2.5.4 is needed by up2date-gnome-2.5.4-1
<end>
Is there something else i should be doing first?
Thanks a bunch.
All the best,
AD (who is indeed a newbie)
