What program do you use to install packages? redhat-config-packages? What is the exact error message? There's a missing feature in the redhat-config-packages program in that its dependency resolver doesn't know about errata/update packages. Whenever it complains that it cannot find a -devel package, e.g. "krb5-devel", you need to install that one manually with up2date or yum before you can use redhat-config-packages for bigger tasks. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
