*sigh*.....

RPMs.... so I am trying to install subversion. I have the rpms from the subversion site, when I rpm -i name.rpm it complains about dependancies. Ok fine I understand, I need to install the right version of the deps. no problem, right? wrong. All the dependancies are installed, just the wrong version. I trying to use -U and -F but I seem to be in this vicious look of X needs Y and Y need X.

[username@system rpms]$ sudo rpm --force -U apr-util-0.9.12-1.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
apr-util = 0.9.4-21 is needed by (installed) apr-util-devel-0.9.4-21.i386
[username@system rpms]$ sudo rpm --force -U apr-util-devel-0.9.12-1.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
apr-util = 0.9.12-1 is needed by apr-util-devel-0.9.12-1.i386

*sigh* what is the solution to getting around this. Other than compiling everything by hand, which I am about ready to do....

thanks
