Do not do that unless you have glibc 2.1 and the glibc 2.0 compatibility 
libraries both in place. If you upgrade to RL 6.0, the libraries will be 
in place, and you will not need --nodeps.


I've not been game to update my 5.0 systems to glibc 2.1 lest I do it 
wrongly and break somthing..

Say: There's an RHL 5.1 system over there; doesn't matter if I break it, 
it's about to be downgraded to NT...
