It's the whole distribution, not a single package. The one you've installed contains information about which yum repos to use for the distribution (amongst other things), so you will probably find that next time you do a "yum update", it will want to update almost everything (i.e. take you almost all the way to FC5). Assuming that that's not what you want to do right now, you should fix that by downgrading this package back to the FC4 version: rpm -Uvh --oldpackage http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/fedora-release-4-2.noarch.rpm > I did a find /usr -name 'libmysqlclient.*' and this file is no where to be > found? > > Did you mean a different file to install so I can get 'libmysqlclient14.so'? What I meant for you to do was to download the source RPM package http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/SRPMS/mysqlclient14-4.1.14-4.2.src.rpm from the rawhide area and rebuild it on your system and then install it. It's possible that simply installing the binary RPM will work though, which might save you some time: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/Fedora/RPMS/mysqlclient14-4.1.14-4.2.i386.rpm If you have dependency problems when trying to install this, you'll probably have to rebuild from the source package above. Don't use "--nodeps" or "--force". Paul.
