Description carlson 2000-07-10 20:23:01 UTC 
When I tried to upgrade my XFree 3.3.6 to 4.0.1 from the RawHide site, I
got the following message: "only packages with major numbers <= 3 are
supported by this version of RPM."

Even if I try to upgrade the RPM package itself, I get the same error
message which leaves me with no choice.
