Using the -F option only updates already installed packages, and it will tell you is something is needed as a dependency.

Will it organize what is supposed to go first?
Yes - so long as they are in the directory and an older version is already installed.
So, I should do an rpm -Uvh -F *.rpm???
NO - -U and -F are mutually exclusive. -F means "Freshen" - it updates currently installed packages to the newer version if necessary/possible. -U is like install in that it installs all the packages available, but replaces ones which already exist. Dylan
