=>OK, how about the following "fix"? Or is it not a fix?
=>
=>I install the older version of krb5-workstation.... this of course gives
=>me the .so.3. Now I upgrade to the newer version using rpm -Uvh ....will
=>this not keep the old .so.3 and also allow me the newer krb5 stuff which
=>I assume would have the more recent security stuff?
=>
=>Does this make any sense?
=>
=>Thanks!

If you update a new package over an old package using -Uvh then the old
package gets deleted.
If you install a new package over an old package using -ivh and there are
file conflicts then the install will fail.
If you have a package that contains libraries with different filenames
than what is already installed from an older package then you can use the
-ivh trick to have both the old and the new package installed at the same
time with no conflict.
