[SOLVED] DHCP will not install due to previous version
I am running Fedora 12 and I am trying to install the DHCP. well I use the yum -y install dhcp command and this is what I get
"Transaction Check Error:
file /user/share/man/man5/dhcp-eval.5.gz from install of dhcp-12:4.1.1-18.P1.fc12.i686 conflicts with file from package dhclient-12:4.1.0p1-12.fc12.i686
file /usr/share/man/man5/dhcp-options.5.gz from install of dhcp-12:4.1.1-18.P1.fc12.i686 conflicts with file from package dhclient-12:4.1.0p1-12.fc12.i686"
Can any one help? I am a newbie at this and I tried the yum remove, yum update and the yum update says dhcp packages available but not installed.

Hi and Welcome !
It is available in Fedora and most of other distros by default. It is a part of core system.
Post the output of this
Code:rpm -q dhcp

I am not sure of what you are asking. But I did get it fixed. I had to run the
yum -y upgrade dhclient
then run
yum -y install dhcp
and that fixed it. But thanks for the help.

Thanx for posting solution. rpm -q command searches all installed packages and display version number too.
