I have followed your advice and installed the the above package. This package is of size 3,119,949 bytes and update bind from BIND-8.2.2_P5-C1 to BIND-8.2.2_P7-C1. As this appears an official announcement, I thought that is it... ... until I got cracked again. On inspection and comparision with http://www.cobalt.com/support/download/raq3.eng.html reveals some inconsistencies: RaQ3-All-Security-4.0.1-9353.pkg is of size 3,119,949 bytes and updates bind to BIND-8.2.2_P7-C1 RaQ3-All-Security-4.0.2-9353.pkg is of size 3,120,155 bytes and updates bind to BIND-8.2.3-C1. (The webpage says that the size is 3,119,949 bytes which is incorrect.) Ok, no hassle, just install 4.0.2 over 4.0.1. Now, cobalt is showing that I have two pkg(s) installed. Ok, no hassle, just uninstall the first pkg. Now, the fun begins. On attempting to uninstall of 4.0.1, gives this error(?) message: (offline mode: enter name=value pairs on standard input) What's happening here? How do I uninstall 4.0.1?
