The order of the rpms is not relevant. And the difference between: # rpm -Uhv *.rpm and: # rpm -Uhv a.rpm b.rpm is that you don't install everything under the sun that just happens to be in the current directory. Anyway, my point was that listing all of the rpms on the command-line does in fact solve the problem you mentioned. --- Dustin Puryear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Puryear Information Technology Windows, UNIX, and IT Consulting http://www.puryear-it.com
