Upgrade to 3.0

[Tom Achtenberg]

How do I remove gophoto?  I ran the RH up2date tonight, how can I tell which
version of RPM I have?

One of the problems about installing the current RedHat 7.2 RPMs is they
were
compiled on a non RedHat 7.2 system.  They require RPM 4.0.4 instead of RPM
4.0.3 which is the RH 7.2 version.  What I did was hopped into the updates
directory on ftp.redhat.com, grabbed the update for popt, the update for
up2date and the update for rpm.  Installing all that broke up2date for
whatever reason, but I never use it so it matters little anyhow.  kdeadmin
needs RPM 4.0.4 (as it was compiled with it) for kpackage I would imagine,
but if you don't care about that don't worry about it.  I never use kpackage
as I rarely RPM software.

Another thing is, you can just trash the gphoto stuff because it's only
needed
by kamera.  If you don't have a digital camera, this is useless to you.
Hope
this was helpful.  :)
