Alrighty, so I got all 83 RPM's. I rebooted and went to runlevel 3. logged in as root. I did as the readme file suggested and issued rpm -Uvh libart_lgpl*rpm from the download directory, those two files went in okay. Then when I issued the command rpm -Fvh *rpm it chugged along nicely and spit out the following error:
file /opt/kde3/share/mimelnk/image/x-pcx.desktop from install of kdelibs3-3.1-46 conflicts with file from package pixieplus-kde-0.3-254 I'm stumped. Google tells me that Pixie Plus os a fast image file viewer. Beyond that nothing else. What do I do to resolve this conflict? I'm assuming that because it hit this it did not continue with the update. FYI, I have rebooted and can still get in to a KDE 3.0 desktop. Any assistance would be wonderful.
