I've got an up to date RaQ4r. When I try to install this package
(http://ftp.cobalt.sun.com/pub/packages/raq4/eng/RaQ4-en-Security-2.0.1-SHP.
pkg),
I get an error message that says:
"This point release requires RaQ4-All-Kernel-4.0.1-2.2.16C32III-4.pkg"
I have RaQ4-All-Kernel-2.0.1-2.2.16C32III.pkg but I don't know what that
other one is.
Does anyone have any ideas? FYI: I wget'ed the top package and attempted a
web interface
install.
Thanks,
Sean
