Greetings.  On 5 August 2004 Troy Dawon posted the following to this
list, in response to a question about updating from SL 301 to SL 302:

I'm interested in going from 302 to 303, and I infer that that currently
means to use the "30rolling" files.  In any event, I tried to upgrade
the yum configuration that way, but got an error:

[root@UCD-sys root]# rpm -Uvh

         package yum-conf-302-2.SL (which is newer than
yum-conf-30rolling-1.SL) is already installed

I didn't see any other yum-conf file in that directory.  I'm evidently
doing the wrong thing.  Can somebody tell me what I SHOULD be doing?
Thanks.
