In the i586 directory there are over 50 RPMs. Do you happen to know 
which ones should be installed, and in what order?

i've downloaded only the symlinks which point to RPMs, assuming that 
those point to the "latest" version of each RPM, but that still leaves 
me with 15 RPMs.

i've tried installing a few of them, but then get errors like:

owl:/space/packages/zend # rpm -i libzypp.rpm 
        file /usr/share/zypp/schema/xmlstore/language.rnc from install 
of libzyp
p-1.3.1-0.6 conflicts with file from package libzypp-0.0.8-154
        file /usr/share/zypp/schema/xmlstore/language.rng from install 
of libzyp
p-1.3.1-0.6 conflicts with file from package libzypp-0.0.8-154
... (many more)


When i then try to uninstall libzypp-0.0.8-154 i get errors about files 
being required by other packages. i'm not about to spend the rest of 
the day sorting through the dependencies, though.

Any tips on how to do this smoothly?
