As is stated in the mailing list archives inumerable times, the
freevsd-pkgs-*.rpm rpms are not for installation on the host server, but,
are installed by vsd-install.pl
into the skel
You'll probably have to reinstall your host server, then install
the freevsd rpms in the order
freevsd-<version>.rpm followed by
freevsd-pkgs-<version>.rpm
Then when you run vsd-install.pl it will install the freevsd patched rpms
into the skel
You can get most of the answers from the archives, and Ben@fubra 's FAQ
