After reading some of your other site message posts. <GRIN>
{-: A Google on "pine-4.64-5.lvn7.i386.rpm" turned up some interesting
results. :-}
What do you get when you do:
$ less pine-4.64-5.lvn7.i386.rpm
Is it TEXT of gobbly gook?
If TEXT then you had a download failure.
First try:
# yum install pine
If that work then use that version and go on.
Otherwise if it was GobblyGook then try:
# yum localinstall /home/btth/pine-4.64-5.lvn7.i386.rpm
(If the above 'less' gave back TEXT then first download a new copy and
the try the above.)
