This utility will fail if >updates have been done. Well, I KNOW that I updated system z9m9z with yum update, then came back and added BIND (which I left off in the initial install). But it DID fail on system Port3890 when trying to add Thunderbird and a few other odds and ends. I did just install Thunderbird with: yum install thunderbird I will have to figure out what else I had decided add and do that via yum.
