Description wayne 2000-05-29 08:34:21 EDT

When trying to rpm -Uvh perl-5.6.0-1.i386.rpm I get a message saying
package perl-5.00503-6 (which is newer then perl-5.6.0-1) is already
installed

This does not seem correct

Comment 1 Nalin Dahyabhai 2000-07-03 05:13:46 EDT

Should be fixed in 5.6.0-2, which adds an Epoch: tag to get around version
numbering madness.
