Hi, Sorry if it's a basic question, but I've tried to update the yum version I'm running, and as root, I've run : "yum update yum" and after dozen of lines like those, this is what I got : Restarting Dependency Loop .Updating: atrpms, noarch Not an install only pkg, adding to ts Updating: rpm, i386 Not an install only pkg, adding to ts Updating: yum, noarch Not an install only pkg, adding to ts Updating: librpm41, i386 Not an install only pkg, adding to ts Updating: libelf082, i386 Not an install only pkg, adding to ts Updating: popt, i386 Not an install only pkg, adding to ts Updating: elfutils-libelf, i386 Not an install only pkg, adding to ts Updating: elfutils, i386 Not an install only pkg, adding to ts Updating: rpm-python, i386 Not an install only pkg, adding to ts looping count = 3 # of Deps = 2 debug dep: rpm-build req rpm - 4.1.1 - 0 No suggestion for rpm-build needing rpm Best version for rpm is 0:4.2-1_15.rh8.0.at Got Extra Dep: rpm, i386 debug dep: rpm-devel req rpm - 4.1.1 - 0 No suggestion for rpm-devel needing rpm Best version for rpm is 0:4.2-1_15.rh8.0.at Got Extra Dep: rpm, i386 Restarting Dependency Loop .identical dependency loop exceeded package rpm-build needs rpm = 4.1.1 (not provided) package rpm-devel needs rpm = 4.1.1 (not provided) [root@celtes2 fm]# [fm@celtes2 fm]$ rpm -qa | grep yum yum-2.0.3-1 [fm@celtes2 fm]$ Someone post a link to grab a version for redhat 8.0, but I've been unable to upgrade using them. Is there a parameter "-v" or "-version", to know exactly which version we are running ? Thanks Francois
