You might need to upgrade your rpm to ver 4.x. Along the way you will need
to upgrade the popt, db3, and tcl rpms to make the rpm upgrade work. I've
found that donwloading the entire contents of the 6.2 upgrade library to
your hard drive, the running rpm -uvh * works pretty well. It reads the
packages on your system and upgrades them with the new files. You may have
to pause to upgrade dependencies for a couple of packages but once it gets
going it upgrades all the files automatically.
