Seth, I'm trying to upgrade RH7.2 to 9 as an intermediate step to Fedora. [I'd go straight to fedora if I could get it to work, but I've been unsuccessful - long story.] Anyway, when I run 'yum upgrade' I get this. Resolving dependencies .conflict between perl and perl-NDBM_File as have others (in the list) when trying a similar stunt. I found a discussion on this from last May here: https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/pipermail/yum/2003-May/001203.html However, perl-5.6.1-26.72.3 which is what's running on this antiquated machine requires the perl-NDBM_File rpm, and as you might imagine, there are loads of stuff that require perl. So I appear to be at an impasse. Do you have any suggestions regarding how to get around this, short of creating a set of disks and upgrading the old-fashioned way?
