Re:  RH22000 - RH Linux 7 - Professional Server (English) RH22000

I had a large hard disk and tried to install on it as much as I could.
First I installed the first 4 CDs. Then CDR0005-1,2 (Linux App. Lib. 
Workstation Ed. CDs).  Then CDR0006-1,2, CDR0007-1: a number of packages 
failed to install because of dependency problem.  Finally I proceeded to 
install the Errata CD.

Following is a screen trace after I inserted the Errata CD and typed:
/mnt/cdr[root@localhost cdrom]# /mnt/cdrom/upgrade-system
error: failed dependencies:
	/usr/bin/python is needed by up2date-2.0.5-3

[root@localhost cdrom]# which python
/usr/bin/python

[root@localhost cdrom]# set | grep PATH
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/
sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/X1
1R6/bin:/root/bin

I downloaded from www.redhat.com the latest Errata packages 
up2date-2.0.6-1.i386.rpm and up2date-gnome-2.0.6-1.i386.rpm
but I got basically the same error messages.  I clearly had
python in the path but up2date always complained python
was not found!!!

I contacted RedHat support team for help for several days
but the problem was not resolved.
At last, I crashed my system and reinstalled as follows:
  - installed CDs #1, #2 only
  - then downloaded up2date*.rpm and installed using rpm -ivh successfully
  - then downloaded glibc*.rpm and installed using rpm -Uvh successfully.

I think libraries in CDR0005,6,7 may have been inconsistent with libraries 
in the first two CDS (CD1 and CD2). They may have caused the python 
dependency problem that I experienced.

Can you please duplicate the problem and fix it?
Thank you very much.
