suidperl
I'm sure you all got the security advisory about suidperl in RedHat. Well,
when trying to freshen the perl package with the new one, I get
[root@xxx rh6x-updates]# rpm -Fvh perl-5.00503-11.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) <= 3.0.3-1 is needed by
perl-5.00503-11
Has anyone successfully updated this package? The current rpm version on
rh6.2 is 3.0.4-0.48, so why does this package want a much older version? I
never use redhat except here at work and know nothing about rpms. Any
advice would be greatly appreciated.
