I made a typo. I had meant rpm -e pwlib1 --nodeps instead of rpm -e pwlib 
--nodeps (I forgot the number 1).  Then do rpm -ivh pwlib1-1.2.19-1mdk. That 
is what I always do when I get the above dependency errors. It works 
everytime without breaking anything. In the case ot the above, I would do the 
following:

rpm -e pwlib1 pwlib1-devel --nodeps
rpm -ivh pwlib1-1.2.19-1mdk.i586.rpm pwlib1-devel-1.2.19-1mdk.i586.rpm

OT: I agree whole-heartedly! Speakeasy is THE best ISP we've ever had!
