BUT - and there's always a but - there are no nice RPMs from RedHat for it. I've done a source build of X before on a "roll-yer-own" distro, but never tried to upgrade X under RH before. What is the best/easiest way to do this without breaking anything?
The _best_ way is to get hold of the .spec file from the 4.0.1 source RPM, tweak it as necessary for anything that might have changed in 4.0.3 then use that, along with tarballs of the 4.0.3 source and the rpm command to build your own RPMs, which you then upgrade to via the normal methods. The _easiest_ way is to wait for someone else (eg RedHat themselves) to make those RPMs for you. :) --Colin. ** Colin Palmer, Systems and Development Group, University of Waikato, NZ ** ------------ WLUG - The Waikato Linux Users Group To unsubscribe, send an email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz with "unsubscribe wlug" in the body of the message.
