Ian, Try: rpm -Uvh <package name> --force it won't ask questions then.

How do you install over it/get rid of it/tell the computer "I don't care, just install the bloody thing". I'm presuming rpm -ivh i don't care if I already have it, install the bloody thing <program name> but that didn't work. Maybe I'm asking too much of my system :) (the last was a joke btw) Ian -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
