Do one or the other. If you like RPMs, then download the SA tarball from the website and rpmbuild it to get an RPM. That's what I do. But don't install or try to upgrade SA from CPAN if you've installed it from an RPM. At this point, if you've partly installed SA from CPAN, you will probably want to uninstall the older SA RPM and then reinstall SA from CPAN to make sure everything's there. Note: even if you install SA from an RPM, you will still need to install or upgrade some of the *supporting* modules (like Net::DNS) from CPAN. -- John Hardin KA7OHZ http://www.impsec.org/~jhardin/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] FALaholic #11174 pgpk -a [EMAIL PROTECTED] key: 0xB8732E79 -- 2D8C 34F4 6411 F507 136C AF76 D822 E6E6 B873 2E79 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- It there a Special Olympics for terrorists going on in the UK this week? -- Bruce Schneier, 07/02/2007 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Tomorrow: The 231st anniversary of the Declaration of Independence
