I did
rpm -Uvh *.rpm
Now I have both 7.4 and 7.5.
The command installed a separate 7.5 instead of upgrading from 7.4.
Any solution for an upgrade?
As I face this issue on every major release.
Thanks

Hi,
I installed a new RHEL 8.5 instance on a laptop.
LO 7.3 did not crash after installation.
It looks like moving from 7.2.5 to 7.3 or some problem with leftover files
in the RHEL upgrade caused the issue.
Thanks

Spreading things across too many packages (that one can optionally

Unless you've set up your Ubuntu 10.10 to include backports or
