"--nodeps" failed? That would be the first thing I would try. What was the error message? Are there are custom rpms on this system? Did you verify the checksums of the rpms?llywrch– llywrch2020-06-05 23:33:20 +00:00Commented Jun 5, 2020 at 23:33

--nodeps alone didn't work, the --force caused an error.Jeanne Lane– Jeanne Lane2020-06-06 04:55:57 +00:00Commented Jun 6, 2020 at 4:55

To repeat myself, what was the exact error message? Are there are custom rpms on this system? Did you verify the checksums of the rpms you tried to install?llywrch– llywrch2020-06-07 19:27:39 +00:00Commented Jun 7, 2020 at 19:27

I am new to Linux, so it looks like the procedure y=to verify the checksum of rpms is to run the command rpm -K myrpm.rpm. For each one, it's missing the RSA/SHA signature, but MD5 was okayJeanne Lane– Jeanne Lane2020-06-08 17:15:18 +00:00Commented Jun 8, 2020 at 17:15

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
