It's been awhile since I've used up2date on my system. Today I tried,
and discovered that the SSL certificate I'd been given earlier had
expired. Going to Red Hat's website, I found that I can download a new
version of Up2date with the newer SSL certificate installed.
I downloaded the RPM and tried to install it. I got this message:
# rpm -Uvh up2date-3.0.7.2-1.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
up2date = 3.0.7 is needed by (installed) up2date-gnome-3.0.7-1
No problem, I figure, I'll just uninstall up2date-gnome-3.0.7-1, and
download the newer version.
# rpm -e up2date-gnome-3.0.7-1
Error: Failed dependencies:
up2date-nomge >= 3.0.1 is needed by (installed)
rhn-applet-2.0.9-0.8.0.1
Argh.
Okay, maybe I can just upgrade up2date-gnome:
# rpm -Uvh up2date-gnome-3.0.7.2-1.i386.rpm
Error: Failed dependencies:
up2date = 3.0.7.2 is needed by up2date-gnoe-3.0.7.2-1
Okay, maybe I can update up2date:
# rpm -Uvh up2date-3.0.7.2-1.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
up2date = 3.0.7 is needed by (installed) up2date-gnome-3.0.7-1
I AM IN HELL!!! If someone knows how to fix this conundrum, I would
really appreciate some help.
FYI, I also tried downloading and installing the new SSL key manually,
figuring I could do that, then update up2date through up2date. That
didn't work either. I downloaded the key and did the following:
# gpg --import ./RHNS-CA-CERT
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: Total number processed: 0
So that was kind of useless as well.
