    >>= 8:1.4.1

    You need to have or to be installing a version (at the same time) of the
    arts rpm that is equal to or greater then 1.4.1 for example;

    $ rpm -qa --queryformat '%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}.rpm\n'
    'arts*' | sort
    arts-1.4.1-2.i386.rpm
    arts-devel-1.4.1-2.i386.rpm

    Watch out for word wrap on the rpm command above, put a space after
    the .rpm/n' and before the rest of the command (the second line).

    # rpm -Uvh arts*.rpm kde*.rpm
