What version of RPM do you have installed? It's possible you need to
upgrade RPM (perhaps one version at a time!) to get to a more current level.
You could also try doing this:
rpm -V rpm.name1.rpm rpm.name2.rpm
to see if the packages pass validation.

Subject: SP3 install problems
Well I'm starting to lose patience with the entire PS process from SuSE.
Based on the previous comments that SP3 had corrup RPM packages in it, I
thought I would try SP2. So I downloaded the iso file and created a CD
from the iso image. When I try to issue the following command I get
exactly the same error as I did with SP3.
rpm -Uhv yast2-ncurses-2.6.24-7.s390.rpm
yast2-online-update-2.6.15-9.s390.rpm
yast2-packagemanager-2.6.49-0.s390.rpm
and the error is
yast2-ncurses rpm: rpmio.c:177: fdGetFp: Assertion `fd &&
fd->magic == 0xbeefdead' failed.
Aborted
Anybody have any idea what might be going on, and how to get the SP's
installed?
