Background of the problem: Sometimes a package available within a YDL release is old in comparison to what may be current. For example to use the current release of GPG2 which allows for use of OpenPGP one of the libraries I need is libgcrpyt-1.4.4 but I need to have the version installed by anaconda removed. It just so happens that removing it using yum affects over 300+ other installed packages, which means that I have to find a means of having those same 300+ packages find and discover the new version of libgcrypt! I tried researching this problem in other Linux forums and references and have learned much about spec files and so on. What I haven't found, even on IBM's website discussing rpm, is a logically procedural based answer. I'm hoping that my query can be addressed here. Any takers? ========================== An interesting definition of Open Source: “Man should not consider his material possession his own, but as common to all, so as to share them without hesitation when others are in need” -- Thomas Aquinas 12th Century. _______________________________________________ yellowdog-general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fixstars.com/mailman/listinfo/yellowdog-general HINT: to Google archives, try '<keywords> site:us.fixstars.com'
