What program are you using to try to install the rpm. The above is not a standard rpm error message. Try using rpm from the command line to install the packages. If you still get errors cut and paste the EXACT commandline and the errors. It looks like either you are trying to upgrade the packages 1 at a time. For the command line try something like: "rpm -Uvh spamassasin-2.55-1.i386.rpm perl-Mail-Spamassassin-2.55-1.i386.rpm" You have to do both packages in the same transaction. You cannot do them one at a time. -- ......Tom Registered Linux User #14522 http://counter.li.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] My current SpamTrap -------> [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
