I didn't go to that much trouble. But I tried up2date and got the same
error when updating rpm. So I tried popt and got the rpm error. I
downloaded everything to try it some more. Always the same problem with
the same errors. This happened both before and after updating up2date.

I still have the downloads and haven't tried them again. I'm guessing
that another attempt will be futile.
