[cobalt-users] Problems with RaQ4-All-Security-2.0.1-15959.pkg

["Andrew Danneffel" <adanneffel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Catching up with some updates on a Cobalt RaQ4.  When I try and install
RaQ4-All-Security-2.0.1-15959.pkg I receive a "Problem installing package
component: postgresql-7.0.2-2C4.i386.rpm" in the GUI.  I know there were
some problems installing this update if certain versions of PHP were
installed on the server.  However, I haven't installed any third party PHP
packages on this server.

As recommended for a similar error on this list, I went:

# rpm -qa | grep postgres

to see if there were any old versions of the rpm installed.  I found
postgresql-7.0.2-2C1.  In the past I've removed older RPMs and then
installed new ones when I received this error.  However, as postgresql is so
critical to the RaQ, I figured I'd run this past the list first.  Think it's
OK to:

# rpm -e postgresql-7.0.2-2C1

and then install the update?  Or am I asking for trouble?

Regards,

Andrew
