Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RH 9
2. Install all updates except kernel*
3.
    

Actual Results:  Afterwards, I did rpm -ivh <failed rpm> --force, the
the ones that failed installed properly.

Expected Results:  It should of updated the system without errors.

Comment 1 Ulrich Drepper 2003-11-04 20:52:06 UTC
What updates?  I bet you have a machine where RHL9 installs the i686
glibc and you force the i386 version on top of it.  This mustn't
happen and would be entirely your fault.  So, which files were involved?

Comment 2 Homer Parker 2003-11-05 08:07:56 UTC
Your right.. I goofed.. I just can't understand how if there's arch
specific updates, the updates not for the arch will install :( I
didn't force anything.. rpm -Fvh is all it took.. Thanks for the help..
