Something very cool for that situation you might not be aware of (I tripped over it randomly some months ago). Download the rpm as usual, but instead of rpm -i <rpm file> do yum localinstall <rpm file> this will do the same as rpm -i, but yum will go out and download and install any dependencies needed by the rpm you downloaded in the same action (assuming they are in repos it knows about). -Andy
