Never-ever use --nodeps --force unless you're ABSOLUTELLY sure and know what are you doing. As for rest, did I understand you correctly, that you want to upgrade your RHEL4 x86-64 install using YUM repos for CentOS4? If so - why are you downloading and installing packages for x86 i386 arch? You'd better re-download above packages for a correct arch and do the following: # rpm -e --nodeps python-elementtree-1.2.6-4.2.1.i386 python-sqlite-1.1.7-1.2.i386 sqlite-3.3.3-1.2.i386 libxml2-python-2.6.16-6.i386 rpm-python-4.3.3-18_nonptl.i386 # rpm -Uvh <new RPMS you have downloaded for x86-64 arch > Also, to use CentOS4 yum with success on RHEL you should remove redhat-release package and install centos-release package. To remove redhat-release package you will be forces to use --nodeps option, but that is ok for this case. -- Best regards, Alexey Loukianov mailto:aloukianov@xxxxxxxxxx System Engineer, IT Department, Lavtech Corp _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
