Hi Thomas, RH7.3
Thanks for your response. Sorry, I am equally surprized. This is the same system I started to post As USER $ whereis sane sane: /etc/sane.d /usr/lib/sane /usr/include/sane /usr/share/sane /usr/share/man/man7/sane.7.gz $ rpm -qa | grep sane sane-backends-1.0.7-6 sane-frontends-1.0.7-2 xsane-0.84-2 sane-backends-devel-1.0.7-6 I have no idea where did "sane-1.0.3" come from I have following packages downloaded from ftp.redhat.com and kept them in /home/satimis/Download/Sane/i586/ sane-backends-1.0.11-1.i586.rpm sane-backends-devel-1.0.11-1.i586.rpm sane-frontends-1.0.10-1.i586.rpm xsane-0.90-1.i586.rpm xsane-gimp-0.90-1.i586.rpm I started following test both as USER and ROOT with the same result $ rpm -Uvh --test /home/satimis/Download/Sane/i586/*.rpm Tried as USER $ rpm -qa | grep sane-1.0.3 No response $ locate sane-1.0.3 No response What other commands I can test to find out where/how comes sane-1.0.3 TIA B.Regards Stephen T.
