Hi Fred,

I do this from time to time... download the tgz... then I extract the tgz, cd RPMS then run rpm -i *.rpm --force

Then of course you man need to change your path to use the new /op/....

In fact, Jerry, I finally got it installed with:

rpm -ivh *.rpm

(after extracting all the files from the LOo tarball).

didn't need the --force.

It just seems really weird that yum reacts the way it does.
