Update, not freshen?  Hrm..  I have the new files in a directory with
up2date using that directory as a source.  However, up2date doesn't
even show 4.1.14 as newer...  I must be missing something ...   :

[friz jake ~]$ rpm -q MySQL-server
MySQL-server-4.1.13-0
[friz jake ~]$ rpm -q --provides MySQL-server
msqlormysql
mysql-server
mysql
MySQL
MySQL-server = 4.1.13-0
[friz jake ~]$ rpm -qp --obsoletes
/mnt/Linux/extras/RPMS/MySQL-server-standard-4.1.14-0.rhel4.i386.rpm
MySQL
mysql
mysql-server
[friz jake ~]$ sudo rpm -Fvh
/mnt/Linux/extras/RPMS/MySQL-server-standard-4.1.14-0.rhel4.i386.rpm

[friz jake ~]$ up2date -l
You are attempting to run "up2date" which requires administrative
privileges, but more information is needed in order to do so.
