Silly question...why don't you configure up2date and let it figure it
out for you?  If dependencies are missing, they'll be automatically
installed.  This will save you a *lot* of time hunting stuff like this
down.  And yes, the kernel is available through up2date.

I have a filesystem-2.1 rpm.  If the package hasn't been updated, you
won't find it in the updates directory.  Did you check to see what
version you currently have installed?  I didn't think it was optional...
Mine was installed well over a year ago so it hasn't been updated
recently, if at all.

libreadline.so.4 is in the readline rpm.  I've got readline-4.1-9.

Just for you information readline-4.1-9 is installed on my system.  It
has the libreadline.so.4 in it as well.  So why the dependency failure?
