kernel-headers was not installed, so -F won't install it.  Use -U.

don't run a -q with a package name.  "kernel-headers-2.2.16-3" or
"kernel-headers" will work just fine, but
"kernel-headers-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm" is not the name of an installed rpm
package.

No errors reported, it probably installed.
