<p align="Left">Some users have reported problems installing the RPM
|
|
|
|
|
|
on SuSE 7.3 where rpm reports a conflict with kernel <= 2.2 even
|
|
|
|
|
|
though a 2.4 kernel RPM is installed. To get around this problem, use
|
|
|
|
|
|
the --nodeps option to rpm (e.g., "rpm -ivh --nodeps
|
2002-08-22 23:33:54 +02:00
|
|
|
|
shorewall-1.2-13.noarch.rpm").<br>

|
|
|
<br>
|
2003-04-13 17:28:32 +02:00

The problem stems from the fact that SuSE does not
|
|
|
|
|
|
include a package named "kernel" but rather has a number of packages
|
|
|
|
|
|
that provide the virtual package "kernel". Since virtual packages have
|
|
|
|
|
|
no version associated with them, a conflict results. Since the
|
2002-08-22 23:33:54 +02:00
|
|
|
|
workaround is simple, I don't intend to change the Shorewall package.</p>

<p>The RedHat iptables RPM is compiled with debugging enabled but the

user-space debugging code was not updated to reflect recent changes in the

2002-08-22 23:33:54 +02:00

Netfilter 'mangle' table. You can correct the problem by installing

this iptables RPM</a>. If you are already running a 1.2.5 version of
|
|
|
|
|
|
iptables, you will need to specify the --oldpackage option to rpm (e.g.,

"iptables -Uvh --oldpackage iptables-1.2.5-1.i386.rpm").</p>
