Welcome to LQ.

That is not from installing an RPM package.
Is from an SRC.RPM ( SRPM ), which is source code only.

And the warnings have absolutely no importance.
Is an info, telling you, who the package "Packager" is / was.


Installing thunderbird :
Please use the command : # yum install thunderbird

Dear Sir

Thanks for early reply and
I am trying to install by yum install *.rpm....but I ma getting the below output...


yum install thunderbird-2.0.0.21-1.el5.centos.src.rpm

And thing heppening with openoffice.org-2.3.0-6.11.el5.src.rpm
My kernel version is 2.6.24-ovz009 and RHEL5

THANK YOU!

You already installed this to /usr/src/redhat/SOURCE/
.. see post # 1.

The main purpose of yum is to download a package
from Redhat .. and then install it.
Works, when you have an account at Redhat.
Not paying → no support → no software to get.

I can repeat : those " src.rpm " are not " .rpm " packages.
An SRC.RPM is is used when building RPM.

So the openoffice.org-2.3.0-6.11.el5.src.rpm is not
usable as is either.


If you want a free Redhat EL 5 : Use the free version :
CentOS 5.4
