Thanks Trevor,

Ok, I downloaded all the RPMs and here are the dependency problems that
showed up when I did an 'rpm -Uvh *':

[root Hephaestus rhupdate]# ls
cpp-2.96-85.i386.rpm          gcc-java-2.96-85.i386.rpm
gcc-2.96-85.i386.rpm          gcc-objc-2.96-85.i386.rpm
gcc-c_2b_2b-2.96-85.i386.rpm  libstdc_2b_2b-2.96-85.i386.rpm
gcc-chill-2.96-85.i386.rpm    libstdc_2b_2b-devel-2.96-85.i386.rpm
gcc-g77-2.96-85.i386.rpm
[root Hephaestus rhupdate]# rpm -Uvh *
error: failed dependencies:
        libgcj >= 2.96 is needed by gcc-java-2.96-85
        libgcj-devel >= 2.96 is needed by gcc-java-2.96-85


Also, when I looked on the RH 7.0 CD2, I couldn't find the 'kcc' files.

Thanks,

Rob
