Hi list, I can install the default ppp-2.4.4-2, but when I try to install an rpm I built from Sangoma's ppp-2.4.4.5 (using checkinstall-1.6.1) I get this error: # rpm -ivh ppp.2.4.4.5-1.eai.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: ppp < 2.4.3-3 conflicts with kernel-2.6.18-162.2.1.el5.i686 Isn't 2.4.4.5 > 2.4.3-3 ??? trying this: yum localinstall ppp.2.4.4.5-1.eai.i386.rpm --nogpgcheck gives some advice: You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: package-cleanup --problems package-cleanup --dupes rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest and I tried each of those, but no joy. Is this an rpm bug, a checkinstall bug, or PEBKAC (problem exists between keyboard and chair)? thanks, -Bob Beers
