Paiz > rpaiz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx AFAIK, AS2.1 is built on 7.2. We run SGI Propack 2.2.1, which is based on AS2.1. The kde and qt packages are all prehistoric: $ rpm -q kdelibs kdelibs-2.2.2-7 $ rpm -q qt qt-2.3.1-7 I usually avoid installing newer RPM's simply because of the dependency issues and the risk to altering the base OS. In cases like this I would download the source (not src.rpm's...they usually barf on dependencies too) and build it from scratch. -Steve -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
