[Leaplist] yum/rpm problem ....

[William A. Mahaffey III]

.... I am having a minor problem trying to upgrade my Opteron box 
running FC6-64bit. I just did a few select upgrades (including yum 
itself) & all went AOK. When I tried to upgrade rpm, I get the following:

uname -a gives:

Linux Opty165A 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 #1 SMP Mon Oct 16 14:39:22 EDT 2006 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I also tried w/ various '--force' options, but to no avail. This is far 
from critical, but it is puzzling & irritating. Any clues for me :-) ? TIA
