There is no reason to upgrade postfix in updates. There isn't a security problem and it being a "base" package is not sufficient reason to put it in updates (there are a lot of "base" packages). > I am running a 9.1 base with db4.1 & openldap 2.1.20, so not typical > environment.

Recompile the srpm and change the requires; you'll have much better luck. -- MandrakeSoft Security; http://www.mandrakesecure.net/ Online Security Resource Book; http://linsec.ca/ "lynx -source http://linsec.ca/vdanen.asc | gpg --import" {FE6F2AFD : 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD}
