[lug] RPM question

[Jeff Howell]

I have an additional RPM question.

Trying to install enlightnment 0.16.5 on a RH 6.2 box. Already updated
the dependant libraries, but when I run:

#rpm -Uhv enlightenment-0.16.5-1.i386.rpm

I get the error:

RPM cannot install packages with a major number <= 3.

Any ideas?
