Well, it's that, or you have a broken system when you get the dependencies wrong :o) Seriously, it's the only sensible approach. I *would* like to see some more tools for package handling, but there's no serious obstacle to using the command line. Each time there's a dependency missing, *add* it to the command line instead of trying to install it separately. For example, the problem with the rpm upgrade was solved by including all the rpm packages and the popt and python-popt packages together in one "rpm -Uvh" command. The "problem" with trying to install one of the packages was due to trying to use "rpm -i" instead of "rpm -U" ... It's not rocket science. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
