The former yes, the latter no. rpm >= 4.1.1 is what you tried to installed following the Fedora Legacy documentation. > Got two more failed dependencies upon an install attempt for yum... > > warning: /var/tmp/rpm-xfer.DOXB7X: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID e42d547b > error: Failed dependencies: > libxml2-python is needed by yum-2.0.3-5.rh.fr > rpm >= 4.1.1 is needed by yum-2.0.3-5.rh.fr You can also install everything at once, i.e. add the "yum" and "libxml2-python" packages to your original command-line. Sometimes you must install multiple packages at once to resolve circular dependencies. But in your case, you just need to start with upgrading RPM and friends: rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/rpm-4.1.1-1.8x.i386.rpm \ http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/rpm-python-4.1.1-1.8x.i386.rpm \ http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/legacy-utils/i386/popt-1.7.1-1.8x.i386.rpm \ http://download.fedoralegacy.org/redhat/8.0/updates/i386/gnupg-1.0.7-14.i386.rpm
