Subprocess fails on Yast Install
There are several online patches ready for me to install on Suse 9.3 When I try to install several of them an error is thrown. The detail view of the dialog says: ERROR(InstTarget:E_RpmDB_subprocess_failed) Is there any fix?

1) Are you sure you're logged in as root? 2) if 1, try this, rpm --rebuilddb Mike- -- Mornings: Evolution in action.

Thanks! That worked like a charm...and also the YOU installs seem to go much faster. Maybe Suse wants to build that command into Yast as a retry procedure...

It means that rpm failed; the real reason will probably be logged previously. - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFC3uDOtTMYHG2NR9URAvm6AJ9FcVlmaob1qLgsdXHK/zwkGy+29wCeKEVX 7MUJDb7bR2fkesjmg/OQ5MA= =Gufr -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
