Ok, good point to ask Charlie. One of the rpms (I can't remember which one) had a dependency on kernel-headers. However I could not find an actual kernel-headers-2.2.19-7.0.8 rpm. But I did find that the kernel headers are included in the kernel-source-2.2.19-7.0.8.i386.rpm. I tried using --nodeps which of course worked to install the rpm but then I found things did not work correctly compiling and using the make command. I dove deeper and found that a key link was required for everything to work smoothly that the kernel-headers rpm provided. Since the actual kernel headers where installed from kernel-source-2.2.19-7.0.8.i386.rpm I decided to fix this situation by building a 'dummy' kernel-headers-2.2.19-7.0.8.noarch.rpm. This achieves two purposes. It solves the dependency issue as the rpm shows that kernel-headers is installed and creates the missing link. Might be a brute force solution but works like a charm. And remember, if you were interested in peaking into the rpm yourself, the source files for all my contribs may be found here: http://myezserver.com/downloads/mitel/ Regards, -- Darrell May DMC Netsourced.com http://netsourced.com http://myEZserver.com -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives by mail and http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
