Or is it not a fix? => =>I install the older version of krb5-workstation.... this of course gives =>me the .so.3. Now I upgrade to the newer version using rpm -Uvh ....will =>this not keep the old .so.3 and also allow me the newer krb5 stuff which =>I assume would have the more recent security stuff? => =>Does this make any sense? => =>Thanks! => If you update a new package over an old package using -Uvh then the old package gets deleted. If you install a new package over an old package using -ivh and there are file conflicts then the install will fail. If you have a package that contains libraries with different filenames than what is already installed from an older package then you can use the -ivh trick to have both the old and the new package installed at the same time with no conflict. -- -Time flies like the wind.
