to read the rpm 4 format. 3.0.6 has been reported to have additional
dependencies, but I've not tried it. 3.0.5 works for me on all my RH6.n
machines. I have never seen the later two messages, but believe they
will go away with the upgrade.I'm not sure (but fairly certain) there is a mandrake specific version.
