Hello, I've got an old box that I'm trying to update manually, according to the SuSE site's instructions (http://www.suse.com/us/support/download/updates/70_i386.html). My problem is this: I'm trapped in dependency conflicts. I've gotten apache updated, but when I try to update php4, I get this: root@ruth:/home/jkelly > rpm -U ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/7.0_update/n1/mod_php4.rpm error: failed dependencies: libc-client.so is needed by mod_php4-4.0.4pl1-132 libhistory.so.4 is needed by mod_php4-4.0.4pl1-132 libreadline.so.4 is needed by mod_php4-4.0.4pl1-132 I've updated libc.rpm, but apparently this is incomplete. Also, libhistory and libreadline leave me clueless, as there is no rpm for them under 7.0. Well, there is one for readline in the 7.3 tree, but attempting to install that gives me conflicts with the bash.rpm I have installed, which tells me that the branches (7.0 and 7.3) are too far apart. If it makes any difference, this box was originally a 6.2 install, upgraded to 7.0 via the 7.0 ISO CD. Any ideas? By the way, I would love to update this box the right way (i.e. jumping up to a higher version, say 7.1 at least), but I don't have enough ram in the box to do an ftp install. Likewise, other options I've explored failed to work satisfactorily. -- Joey Kelly < Minister of the Gospel | Computer Networking Consultant > http://joeykelly.dhs.org "When Government fears the people, it's liberty.
