this is one of those situations where you may have to try a few different
things before you get it sorted out.

your best bet to start with is to re-install urpmi and see what it says
in the dependecies stuff when you try. obvously you can't re-install
it with urpmi itself, so you'll have to use 'rpm'.

find out which cdrom's got the urpmi package on it - probably cd1 - and
insert that and mount it (probably mounted automatically by your window
manager or whatever). then do

rpm -e urpmi

to uninstall the existing one. this will probably chuck out a whole load
of dependency errors and you can either uninstall everything that depends
on it (by adding them to the command line above) or run rpm with
--nodeps. the latter is probably your best bet at this stage:

rpm --nodeps -e urpmi

then reinstall urpmi:

rpm -ivh <path to cdrom>/<path to rpms>/urpmi..... (whatever the file's
called)

this may chuck out some dependency errors - which will hopefully give you
an idea of what package you'll need to re-install to get the urpmi perl
module that's missing. re-install that the same way.

URPM.pm is part of the perl-urpm package. Did you erase it?
rpm -Uhv --force /path/to/directory/perl-urpm*
should reinstall it. Sounds ike you might have erased it.

Hi,  I have managed to fix up URPMI by reinstalling perl.  In doing so I had 
to remove "RPMtools" as it conflicts with a perl dependency "Packdrake".
I have now another 3 steps left to in attempting to fix my Linux without the 
reinstall,
they include ...
-getting my harddrake to work
- (which I believe should then lead to my cable internet working in Linux)
and finally getting the rpm package manager working so that I can use GUI to 
install rpm packages.

It seems to me as though harddrake, & rpmdrake have the same dependencies 
because when I attempt running them from the command prompt, I receive the 
same error message i.e. - "segmentation fault".

I am now attempting to install an updated version of the RPMtools package 
which doesn't seem to conflict with the "Packdrake" tool but instead comes 
up with the following error message.

***********************************************************************************
dependencies:        perl(Config::IniFiles) is needed by 
rpmtools-5.0.20-1mdk
***********************************************************************************

So now I'm about to download perl-Config-IniFiles-2.38-3mdk.noarch.rpm 
install it using rpm -Uvh and hope for the best.

Thanks once again guys for helping!
