Errata rpm errors..

[Homer Parker <hparker pcsrvc com>]

	A fresh install of RH 9, download the updates, move the kernel updates to
a different directory (so as not to compicate matters), rpm -Fvh *.rpm the
rest of the updates, and I'm getting errors :( Here's what I got (this is
just a cut-n-paste of the packages that gave me errors to keep the list
short ;) :

	A little more info on what I'vee tried.. I have two machines that are
giving me this problem.. One an old dual Celry 433 running 3 WD 40GB
drives with RAID in the kernel, one a brand new Intel 2.4 on an Intel
motherboard with a Promise SX6000 handling the RAID.. I thought I might
have some corrupt rpm's, so I deleted them and downloaded them from
updates.redhat.com again.. Same packages gave me the same errors :( Am I
going ot have to sit on the errata page and install them individually in
the order they were released? If not, any idea as to what's wrong?
