Kinda basic rpm question

[Andrew Robinson <awrobinson@xxxxxxx>]

Notices from Red Hat tell me there are upgrades available for kdelibs. I 
download the rpms, but when I try to apply them, I get this:

$ ls kdelibs*
 kdelibs-3.1-12.i386.rpm
 kdelibs-devel-3.1-12.i386.rpm
$
$ rpm -Uvh kdelibs-3.1-12.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        kdelibs = 6:3.1-11 is needed by (installed) kdelibs-devel-3.1-11
$
$ rpm -Uvh kdelibs-devel-3.1-12.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        kdelibs = 6:3.1-12 is needed by kdelibs-devel-3.1-12

I suspect this is one of those rpm dependency conundrums I read about. I 
suppose I could uninstall the kdelibs-devel package first. However, as a
general approach, that seems like it could lead to problems in other cases.

What is the proper way to apply rpm upgrades in a case like this?

Thanks!

Andrew Robinson
