Hi All,
Recently I've been unable to install new packages on my Raq550 via the GUI. No matter what package I try to install I get the following error:
"There was an error verifying the package file. It may be corrupted, or it may not have the correct authentication information. The software package was not installed."
This happens whether I try to install via BlueLinQ or upload the package myself, and in addition, it is happening with multiple packages. 

This worked for me. YMMV.

- Remove 4 rpm's:
rpm -e base-swupdate-capstone-1.1.0-120
rpm -e base-swupdate-glue-1.1.0-120
rpm -e base-swupdate-locale-en-1.1.0-120
rpm -e base-swupdate-ui-1.1.0-120
- Download the new RPM files from: ftp://ftp.cobalt.com/pub/products/raq550/RPMS 



Example:
wget ftp://ftp.cobalt.com/pub/products/raq550/RPMS/base-swupdate-capstone-1.1.0-120.noarch.rpm wget ftp://ftp.cobalt.com/pub/products/raq550/RPMS/base-swupdate-glue-1.1.0-120.noarch.rpm wget ftp://ftp.cobalt.com/pub/products/raq550/RPMS/base-swupdate-locale-en-1.1.0-120.noarch.rpm wget ftp://ftp.cobalt.com/pub/products/raq550/RPMS/base-swupdate-ui-1.1.0-120.noarch.rpm 


- Install the new RPM files:


rpm -Uvh base-swupdate-glue-1.1.0-120.rpm
rpm -Uvh base-swupdate-ui-1.1.0-120.rpm
rpm -Uvh base-swupdate-capstone-1.1.0-120.rpm
rpm -Uvh base-swupdate-locale-en-1.1.0-120.rpm



- Remove the .rpm files.

This solved my problem.

Just thought I'd post in case anyone else had the same problem.
