Dunno. Does -Uvh not work?

As I said, the *theory* is that you put everything on one bit command
line and rpm is *supposed* to be smart enough to check the
dependancies and install stuff in the required order. :-) It works
with small stuff like Netscape (ever try to install Netscape from
RPMs? It won't work if you try to install each of the two necessary
RPMs separately... you *have* to do an "rpm -Uvh netscape*" and it'll
install both simultaneously... <G>)
