Hi Harry,
I remember this happened to me one time also. What I did was remove the
package (kpackage, as root) and reinstall it. Then it worked.
I use it only to show what's new, then I download things by hand, one at
the time (online time = money here).
For instance, I just downloaded the kernel-2.2.16-9mdk.i586.rpm package
and installed that offline. I don't take chances with things like
that. (btw, the upgrade went purrrfectly)
