Does the list include rpm? I don't think that the error is coming from python. I couldn't see a reference to headerLoad in the python sources. But, there is a reference to headerLoad and header.c in rpm. Could this be some sort of incompatability between rpm 3.X and rpm 4.X? Does anyone know if anaconda uses the rpm it finds under /mnt/sysimage, or would it use the rpm which is included in ramdisk? --Seth __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
