That's not what it's saying. It's saying that you can't overwrite sane-backends-1.0.12 as it iw required by sane-backends-devel-1.0.12. You probably need to get hold of sane-backends-devel-1.0.13 as well and install both packages in the same rpm command. Dave... -- New .sigs Running in please parse
