Installing Vim rpm packages


Hi there --

I got a request to install the following rpm packages onto our SuSE 9.3 server:

vim-enhanced*.rpm
vim-X11*.rpm
vim-common*.rpm
vim-minimal*.rpm

These will supercede the version that is already installed on the server. Is there any specific procedure I need to follow in order to accomplish this?

My plan is to go to the Fedora website, download the rpm's and install them either via the rpm -ivh command or through Yast.

If you are running a Suse server why do you want to install Fedora packages on it? As for installing, you probably need to start with vim-common, then vim-minimal, vim-eanhanced and finally vim-x11.
