Except for installing kernels I always install new rpms with -Uvh.

I like to unpack src rpms the first time I build them. I got the thing built by building it from the tarball. It is just that AFAIK rpm -Uvh *.src.rpm is supposed to work and it does not so I thought Seth would be interested. In fact it does not work on 2 machines I have here. -- .............Tom "Nothing would please me more than being able to tdiehl@xxxxxxxxxxxx hire ten programmers and deluge the hobby market with good software." -- Bill Gates 1976 We are still waiting ....
