I've downloaded the apache *-patch rpms from SuSE's ftp server. When I try to "rpm -ivh" them on my 8.0 box I get a whole pile of conflict errors - each file in the patch rpm conflicts with a file in the installed rpm. That makes sense but I actually want those files to be overwritten.
rpm -Uhv --nodeps i stands for install if it does not exist U stands for update F stands for refresh (replace) you can also use --test parameter to see if the rpm command would succeed (warning with test parameter you do not actually install/update the package) HTH -- Togan Muftuoglu Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer http://dinamizm.ath.cx
