What I had written down from the meeting was- 

# rpm -uvh the.package.name.rpm

but after opening the manpage, I thought "[pick an expletive, then
delete it] !! that can't be right." 

So what's INSIDE the package is more important  than the package name
itself, then. It'll still know it has to update /usr/bin/sylpheed. I
thought the package name might be some kind of "unique identifier". 
I guess I still have that "REGISTRY" mindset.

Anyone else running Evolution, and having problems with daemons in the
prog dying and causing errors when they don't respawn ?
