That package is from ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/8.1-i386/RPMS.update-prpm. The prpm means it's a patch. Go to ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/8.1-i386/RPMS.base and get the ... -59 and you should be ok.
I didn't notice the "p" in that path - never knew such a thing as patch rpm's existed. Thanks for the tip!

John-- Most of the SuSE Security updates are issued in both patched and "regular" as well as source code (src.rpm) versions. I usually use YOU to get my security "patches," and then later download a copy of the complete rpm: Below is a partial print out from the recent SuSE Sendmail announcement: http://www.suse.de/de/security/2003_023_sendmail.html ---snip--- Intel i386 Platform: SuSE-8.1: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/8.1/rpm/i586/sendmail-8.12.6-109.i586.rpm bb987c277374db2cf5ec81b7abe9a476 patch rpm(s): ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/8.1/rpm/i586/sendmail-8.12.6-109.i586.patch.rpm f90dc4e6f63b5c4e368e5db2fe7d09be source rpm(s): ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/8.1/rpm/src/sendmail-8.12.6-109.src.rpm HTH Gar __________________________________________________________________ Try AOL and get 1045 hours FREE for 45 days! http://free.aol.com/tryaolfree/index.adp?375380 Get AOL Instant Messenger 5.1 for FREE!
