I've seen this a couple of times, and both times it's been a dependency issue. I.e. there's a package dependency that is causing the install to fail. With the GUI package manager, it doesn't seem to tell you this. If you run rpm -ivh <package name> it should tell you the dependency that's failed. If that's not it, then I'm at a loss. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
