I'm getting the same problem but I think the problem is with
perl-URPM-0.50-4mdk.i586.rpm which owns
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/urpm.pm and
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux/URPM/Resolve.pm. When trying
to install any package with rpmdrake I'm getting message that package is
installed and I'm getting this message to the console:
# Global symbol "@unresolved" requires explicit package name at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux/URPM/Build.pm line 84.
Compilation failed in require at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/urpm.pm line 765.
Can't use string ("callback_choices") as a HASH ref while "strict refs"
in use at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux/URPM/Resolve.pm line 135.
rpminst didn't install: 'sox-12.17.3-4mdk'
'sox' added to the already_installed_list
already installed: 'sox', SHOULD NOT HAPPEN
This is verisons of some rpms program I have on the system
# rpm -qa | grep rpm
rpm-devel-4.0.4-13mdk
rpm-build-4.0.4-13mdk
rpmdrake-1.5-3mdk
gnorpm-0.96-10mdk
rpm-python-4.0.4-13mdk
gurpmi-3.9-3mdk
rpm-helper-0.3-1mdk
grpmi-8.3-1mdk
rpmtools-4.4-1mdk
rpm-4.0.4-13mdk
rpmlint-0.46-1mdk
urpmi-3.9-3mdk
