Sometimes

2. Waited for dependencies to be confirmed

Comment 1 Jeremy Katz 2008-02-22 15:41:01 UTC
What's the output of 'rpm -V pirut'?

Comment 2 James Vasser 2008-02-22 17:41:29 UTC
What am I supposed to see?  I run the command and it returns to the command prompt.

Comment 3 Richard Wallen 2008-03-07 04:02:26 UTC
