I am unable to update some packages on my Redhat 9 server. I will be using
rpm to install all updates on this server. I received the following errors:
I tried:
rpm -Uvh glibc-2.3.2-27.9.i686.rpm
warning: glibc-2.3.2-27.9.i686.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID db42a60e
error: Failed dependencies:
glibc-common = 2.3.2-27.9 is needed by glibc-2.3.2-27.9
glibc = 2.3.2-11.9 is needed by (installed) glibc-debug-2.3.2-11.9
glibc = 2.3.2-11.9 is needed by (installed) glibc-utils-2.3.2-11.9
Then tried to install all the rpms at once as was suggested in a previous
post I had read.
rpm -Uvh *rpm
warning: glibc-2.3.2-27.9.i686.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID db42a60e
error: Failed dependencies:
glibc-devel = 2.3.2-11.9 is needed by (installed)
nptl-devel-2.3.2-11.9
Is it safe to use --force or --nodeps in order to install these packages?
I am having trouble searching the archives. Google had some references but
not ones that I found helpful. Also, the Redhat references google displayed
could not be found.
Many thanks for all assistance.
