How good are you with rpm ;). Are you using apt for pkg management? Or yum? > What would you recommend ? Apt or Yum: - Do a full redhat9/rawhide dist-upgrade first. I'm not sure if Yum resolved this one, or not.. but apt didn't so if you use apt: - Remove perl-CPAN, ntp, sendmail (If installed) (I had to --nodeps em') - Do your dist-upgrade to fc1. - And then reinstall ntp/sendmail via apt-get -f install.
