Hi Kwan and Stephen,
Thanks for your replies.
When I do: [root@tusker ~]# rpm -qV python-elementtree [root@tusker ~]#
OK, this shows that the package is fine.. No output is good in this case..
I get no output as you can see. When I do:
[root@tusker ~]# rpm -q python-elementtree python-elementtree-1.2.6-7.el4.rf [root@tusker ~]#
I get the package name listed: When I then do: [root@tusker ~]# rpm -q --info python-elementtree Name : python-elementtree Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 1.2.6 Vendor: Dag Apt
[snip]
Which appears to tell me that this is an old version possibly installed from an incorrect repositry (Dags) and not the standard CenTOS repositries.
My problem now is that yum does not work as there is a conflict between this version of the package and the updated Pyhton. Any idea on recovering from this situation.
Yes, I would concur with that analysis :D.
And also concur with S Harris' method of resolving... Use rpm directly, not yum, to install the correct python-elementtree package.
