RPM killing me :-(



Hi

Here is the story.

I bought a new computer which i ntend to be authotication server.

any way i installed redhat 5.1 on it.
All the installation went swift but now every RPM i try to install say strange things

the first 2 examples are from ftp.redhat.com for 5.1 (upgrades)

Like:

# rpm -i rpm-2.5.2-1.i386.rpm
/bin/rpm conflicts with file from rpm-2.5-2
/usr/bin/rpm2cpio conflicts with file from rpm-2.5-2
/usr/lib/rpmpopt conflicts with file from rpm-2.5-2
/usr/lib/rpmrc conflicts with file from rpm-2.5-2
/usr/man/man8/rpm.8 conflicts with file from rpm-2.5-2
error: rpm-2.5.2-1.i386.rpm cannot be installed

rpm -i patch-2.5-4.i386.rpm /usr/bin/patch conflicts with file from patch-2.5-2
error: patch-2.5-4.i386.rpm cannot be installed

# rpm -i radiusd-2.01.D-1.i386.rpm
error: radiusd-2.01.D-1.i386.rpm cannot be installed

# rpm -iv radius-utils-1.1-1.i386.rpm
Installing radius-utils-1.1-1.i386.rpm
package radius-utils-1.1-1 is already installed
error: radius-utils-1.1-1.i386.rpm cannot be installed

# rpm -ev radius-utils-1.1-1.i386.rpm
package radius-utils-1.1-1.i386.rpm is not installed

Please notice that while its says that "radius-utils-1.1-1.i386.rpm" is
already installed when using  "-i" while using -e its says not installed
