about upgrade dependencies.

Thank you.

Subject: [NTLUG:Discuss] Upgrade Dependencies - RPM


I've been using the Red Hat network to update my RH 7.1 box and have
been really pleased with how well it has worked. So I was surprised
a day or two ago when the update to rpm-4.0.4-7 failed.
<https://rhn.redhat.com/network/errata/errata_details.pxt?eid=1054>
(Updates for gnorpm, kpackage, up2date, rpmfind, and other packages
that use rpm are included as well.)

I wanted to ask here about the appropriate action to take before
instead of using my normal TAM (thrashing-about-method). [I haven't
needed TAM since I started using RHN's up2date.)

The update to perl-Perl-RPM 0.291-2 failed, stating that it requires
librpm.so.0 and librpmio.so.0. I looked up those two files on
rpmfind, and found that they are part of rpm-4.0.2-8.i386.

I did an rpm files list on my rpm-4.0.2 and both of those files are
listed, but with symbolic links:

librpm.so.0   > librpm.so.0.0.0
librpmio.so.0 > librpmio.so.0.0.0

Where do I go from here?

TIA for your assistance!
