[NTLUG:Discuss] Redhat 8.0 kdebase upgrade question

[Bug Hunter]

  I'm trying to upgrade the kdebase from the RedHat update site, and am 
getting 

  rpm -Uvh kdebase-3.0.5a-7.i386.rpm

error: unpacking of archive failed on file 
/usr/share/doc/HTML/en/kaddressbook/common;3f4dd42: cpio: symlink failed - 
Operation not permitted

  Googling suggested no file space --not a problem here, and replacing an 
existing file with a sylink -- not a problem here, file doesn't exist.

  No bugs at RedHat Bugzilla for this one.  I re-downloaded the rpm from 
another site just in case, same error.

  I tried --force.  same error.

  Redhat is getting harder and harder to talk to, so I'm not interested in 
flagging them, but I may have to.  I just want to get the files out of the 
archive.  The man page didn't give me any clues.


  Any ideas?
