It does not install anything! Instead is makes a new rpm file for you in /etc/src/endian/RPMS/<arch> So to build a development box what you reall need to do in first install gcc and rpmbuild [looks like you have rpmbuild already] To install you do rpm -ivh package To upgrade you do rpm -Uvh package If you include more then 1 package on the commanline rpm will install all of them at once and use them to resolve dependencies on each other. Does that help? -Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
