Hi all,

A week or so ago I posted a summary regarding a failed installupdate from
4.0F PK4 to 5.0A. After that I received the following from Paul Henderson
of Compaq:

> This was a problem found in zinc (5.0A) where duplicate base os files
> were listed in the patch inventory files and update install treated
> them as obsolete files (qar 79657). Unfortunately, this bug was
> detected after zinc was closed. It was fixed in zulu (5.1).

Hopefully this will help out anyone planning to go the 4.0F -> 5.0A route.
Apparently 4.0G doesn't have this bug, so it's probably the best way to
get to 5.1, which was our ultimate goal.

Thanks to Paul for the info...

Regards,

Andrew
