Erm... dunno I dislike ever using --force because nothing good ever seems to result.
I guess the simplest way to install 3.0.1 would be urpmi in your 3.0.1 download directory. Then all the dependencies ought to get sorted out. Personally I will wait for RPMs to install in /opt . I do not want to delete KDE2.2.2 until I am sure KDE3.0.1 is OK, and there are no issues with other applications depending on KDE2.2.2 for their operation. derek On Friday 24 May 2002 1:30 pm, Klar Brian D Contr MSG/SICN wrote: > So are you saying it is safe to rpm -e > all the 3.0 files?
