I have to wonder where you got your gnupg-1.2.3-3 RPM for S/390. The version that Red Hat shipped was 1.0.6-3, and was never updated. Is this perhaps an RPM from SUSE?

I think I've found most of the pre-req packages that also need upgrading, except I'm unsure about a few RPM dependencies that are showing up. In running rpm --test for the following packages to be installed or upgraded: gnupg-1.2.3-3 glibc-2.3.3-10 glibc-common-2.3.3-10 glibc-devel-2.3.3-10 glibc-headers-2.3.3-10 binutils-2.14.90.0.8-8 libgcc-3.3.3-2 tzdata-2003d-2 error: failed dependencies: rpmlib(PartialHardlinkSets) <= 4.0.4-1 is needed by glibc-common-2.3.3-10 rpmlib(PartialHardlinkSets) <= 4.0.4-1 is needed by tzdata-2003d-2 perl(Getopt::Std) is needed by gnupg-1.2.3-3 The versions of rpm and perl that are installed are: rpm-4.0.3-1.03c perl-5.6.1-26.72.3a It seems like the rpmlib error is asking for a release less than 4.0.4, which we have; unless I am misreading the message! What does this message really mean, and can it safely be ignored? What is needed to satisfy the perl Getopt::Std dependency? From what I've been able to find, this should be included in releases of perl much older than 5.6. Thanks for any insight! Mary Sue Nutt FT Interactive Data
