> Hi,
> I ran into a snag with the rpm-build package.  The one that came with my

> installation.
> I tried to install the latest without uninstalling 3.0.48, but I keep

> Do I need to incrementally install every version from 3.0.48 - 3.0.9.x, or
> can I just uninstall 3.0.48 and install 3.0.9.xx?  
> My machine is RH6.2.
