In that case, you probably have a version installed that the patch rpm can't handle. Go get
http://ftp.gwdg.de/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/update/9.0/rpm/noarch/ webmin-1.150-5.noarch.rpm
instead and -Uvh with that. That's the full version
Additionally, since you used -i I'll bet you have a messed up rpm database now. If you do "rpm -q webmin", you probably see more than one version. So before you install the above version, it's probably best to "rpm -e" both of those, and then "rpm -i" the above full version.
rpm -q shows me only one version, but I'll rpm -e anyway. Hope that doesn't delete config files under /etc/webmin, but I'll save them JIC. I looked at my patch mirror. It had both -r--r--r-- 1 xx xx 6856504 2004-08-18 14:02 webmin-1.150-5.noarch.rpm -r--r--r-- 1 xx xx 3527270 2004-08-18 14:31 webmin-1.150-5.noarch.patch.rpm in i386/update/9.0/rpm/noarch but in i386/update/9.0/patches is only -r--r--r-- 1 xx xx 1934 2004-08-24 13:40 webmin-51590 (wonder why its datestamped 6 days later than the rpms) it it claims: PatchRpmBasedOn: 1.070-169 BuiltFrom: webmin-1.150-5.src.rpm Version: 1.150-5 And of courses, I had 1.070-169 installed. So online_update only downloaded the patch and tried to apply it to the wrong version ... I wonder if there was a mixup in the patch files ... I'll hand-install 1.150-5 as you suggest ..
