        I copied the contents of my SuSE 9.1 Pro DVD up to a local web
    server. I've done many install by booting off of a CD-ROM made from
    boot.iso and pointing to this URL as the install source. On the boxes
    that were installed that way I have been able go into Yast and "Install
    and Remove Software" without problems until recently. Now I get errors
    about "package not found on source medium". As an example I just went
    tried to install all the php stuff on a test webserver. I guess gpg was
    a dependency somwhere as I get this error, "Package gpg-1.2.4-68.4.i586
    was not found on the medium.". When I go look at my install source I
    find gpg but it's the wrong version, gpg-1.2.4-64.i586.rpm. This is the
    case with literally dozens of packages, not just gpg. I've also run the
    updates via YOU pretty ofen.

        What has happened to make Yast think it needs gpg-1.2.4-68 instead
    of gppg-1.2.4-64? How do I fix it?
