Please tell me you really mean rpm-4.2-1, not 4.2.1. 4.2.1 has the epoch
promotion removal and won't work properly with Red Hat 9 (because
various RH 9 packages are broken in this regard).
Also, RPM 4.0.5 gives me some scary-looking messages when I use it with
up2date. I mentioned the RH Bugzilla bug number in a previous thread;
if you have trouble finding it, I'll find it again and post it again at
some point in the next few days.
