Hi Charles,

I am assuming that the rpm can't fine an entry for /bin/sh.  If you cd 
to /bin and type "ls sh" and you get a message no such file or 
directory, then there is no file present.  If this is the case, put 
yourself in the /bin directory type "ln -s bash sh"  . This should make 
a symbolic link to the file name bash which is the bourne again shell.  

If when you do the "ls sh" above, then I am not sure what the rpm is 
complaining about.

Good luck
David
