Then cd into it and type: rpm -ivh * Done. Unless I missed a dependency. There shouldn't be any, but if there are complaints about conflicts with older stuff, change the -ivh to -Uvh and try again. For this and other matters, rpmfind is your friend. You can go to rpmfind.net and search for each dependency (libraries: libgmp.so.3 or rpm names: rpm-python). Then just download the requirements that are called for in the version numbers. -- It is easier to fix Unix than to live with NT. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
