Sorry, this rpm version is to old -- is it actually 2.4.1? Please enter
the command:
rpm --version
If you're using «S.u.S.E. Linux» 5.0, please update the base system
(serie "a") first or at least rpm and YaST from
<A HREF="ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse51/"><A HREF="ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse51/</A">ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse51/ . If you are cpnnected to the
Internet, the following two commands are sufficient:
rpm -U <A HREF="ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse51/rpm/rpm.rpm"><A HREF="ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse51/rpm/rpm.rpm</A">ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse51/rpm/rpm.rpm
rpm -U <A HREF="ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse51/a1/yast.rpm"><A HREF="ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse51/a1/yast.rpm</A">ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse_update/suse51/a1/yast.rpm
