Hi,

I'm trying to install R from an rpm locally to my account (the reason I'm
not doing it through yast/yast2/zypper is that the sys admin isn't yet
willing to install it, and doesn't want to support it, but will help me
support it if I install it locally -- in short, policy problems rather than
technical).  Below is the SuSE version, Kernel version, and rpm install
error I'm getting, as well as the error...

Can anyone help me with the error?  I'm trying to install R-base 2.14.1,
but it is telling me that I need R-base version 2.14.1 as a dependency.  Am
I using the wrong rpm for an installation starting from scratch?

I got the rpm from:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/base/SLE_10/x86_64/

Thanks,
Matt
