thanks for the good thoughts, but:
gnorpm is not in the 3.0 install set.
kpackage is not in the 3.0 install set.
at least, I'm not clever enough to find them.
rpm won't list the contents of kdeadmin, which is where kde says kpackage
lives.
yum -C install kdeadmin says:
"Gathering package information from servers"
"Getting headers from: Yellow Dog Linux 3.0 base"
"IOError - # 2 No such file or directory"
despite having
/var/cache/yum/base/headers/kdeadmin-7-3.1-1.ppc.hdr
and
/var/cache/yum/base/packages/kdeadminkdeadmin-3.1-1.ppc.rpm
in place.
Same results for yum-1.01 and yum-1.98
So:
Do I really have a system installed that I can't add anything to except the
hard way? (since I can't connect that machine to the web)
