no. Rpm only acts on specific packages.

Except that he is trying to install yum. ;)

No yum installed there for him. ;)
Dave: Try the following:
rpm -ivh
http://mirrors.tummy.com/pub/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386.newkey//yum-3.2.20-5.fc9.noarch.rpm
http://mirrors.tummy.com/pub/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/releases/9/Everything/i386/os//Packages/pygpgme-0.1-8.fc9.i386.rpm
http://mirrors.tummy.com/pub/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/releases/9/Everything/i386/os//Packages/python-iniparse-0.2.3-3.fc9.noarch.rpm
All on one big long line. ;)
Not sure if there are further deps, but hopefully that will get yum installed for you.

Thanks Kevin......
In the order you listed the rpms, the yum failed needing pygpgme.... So
I tried installing them t'other way around:
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -ivh
http://mirrors.tummy.com/pub/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/releases/9/Everything/i386/os//Packages/pygpgme-0.1-8.fc9.i386.rpm
http://mirrors.tummy.com/pub/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/releases/9/Everything/i386/os//Packages/python-iniparse-0.2.3-3.fc9.noarch.rpm
http://mirrors.tummy.com/pub/fedora.redhat.com/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386.newkey//yum-3.2.20-5.fc9.noarch.rpm

error: Failed dependencies:
libgpgme.so.11 is needed by pygpgme-0.1-8.fc9.i386
libgpgme.so.11(GPGME_1.0) is needed by pygpgme-0.1-8.fc9.i386
[root@localhost ~]#
Any idea where the so.11 files might be?? (or how with my limited
knowledge of the remnants of my system, I should go about finding the
deps??))
Thanks again
Dave
