I'm trying to update my SuSE 8.1 system to KDE 3.1 using YaST2. I've configured YaST2 no problem, but I am getting a dependency failure when trying to update libxml2.
YaST reports that libxml2 2.5.1-1 conflicts with docbook_4 and scrollkeeper, which require xmlcatalog.
But a listing of the files inside the libxml2 rpm clearly shows that /usr/bin/xmlcatalog is there.?!
It's not really what is actually in the rpm, it's a question of what the rpm claims it provides. I guess the old version of libxml that you're upgrading had a "Provides: xmlcatalog". If that is the only error, I guess --nodeps is fine. But *never* use the --force regards Anders
