and you've not answered any of my earlier questions - what arch is this ?

AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 248 Linux 2.4.20-021stab028.24.777-enterprise

humm a 2.4 kernel on CentOS4 is going to cause much issues.... exactly what did you do to end up like this ? and more importantly 'why ?'

that being beside the point for now, how do you intend to keep the machine updated for bug and security fix's if there is no working package manager ?

if you really wanted to be persistent, you could just manually download the emacs rpm's from http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/ and manually rpm -i them in. but I'd still try and get a proper fix for the selinux issue and get a package manager working
