RE: Installing gnome from RPM's

[Gregory Leblanc <GLeblanc cu-portland edu>]

I think this is the same error message that I got when I tried to install
GNOME on RedHat 5.2 a while ago.  If you check out the URL with instructions
posted below, there should be someplace that it tells you to uninstall a few
RPMs before you install the GNOME RPM's.  Although it doesn't make any
sense, I think that removing these RPMs will make that message go away.
