Yes the -->PATCH<-- is installed, but not really. The -->patch<-- RPM ONLY PATCHES existing installed RPM packages by updating only portions of the original and updates the version number. If you -->look<-- at the version numbers you see that they are the same. On Tue, 2003-02-11 at 09:42, Palmer, Cliff wrote:

# rpm -U yast2-sound-2.6.23-3.i586.patch.rpm package yast2-sound-2.6.23-3 is already installed # rpm -q -i yast2-sound-2.6.23-3.i586.patch.rpm package yast2-sound-2.6.23-3.i586.patch.rpm is not installed

Is this update rpm installed or not ?
