Installing swat with samba [solved]

I have just installed Mandriva 2007, Spring free from the DVD image. On my 2006 system I used Swat to do various anmin tasks in samba. I have done the updates after the install. I have worked out most problems, but this one I don't understand how to fix.

 

I set up the online mirrors with easy-urpmi. I have Main, Main-update, contrib, contrib-update plf, plf-free and updates.

 

I tried to install swat, from the command line here is what I get.

 

urpmi samba-swat-3.0.23b-7mdv2007.0.i586

The following packages can't be installed because they depend on packages

that are older than the installed ones:

samba-swat-3.0.23b-7mdv2007.0

 

I have no idea how to figure out what packages are are too new for Swat. How do I get swat installed without forcing it?

Greg2,

 

Thank-you for your reply. You are correct, I did add the 2007, not 2007.spring repos. I have removed the 2007 and added 2007.spring. I have updated the system, that took a lot of time, but is done. I have also installed swat, and used it.

 

It was an easy mistake to make, Easy-urpmi defaults to 2007, not 2007.spring. Next time I'll pay more attention to avoid that type of mistake.

 

Problem solved.
