[PLUG] RPM dependency problem - More Info

[Morthland, Cam]

Based on the feedback given to me this morning, I backed off the 1.3 and
went to this link and downloaded the recent packages from there, which
are NOT the latest versions, but a later than what I had installed.  I
will try the suggestions below:

  httpd-2.0.40-21.9
  php-4.2.2-17.2
  gd-1.8.4-11
  libpng-1.2.2-16

I am running into the problem now with gd and libpng - httpd went in
fine.

Thanks,

Cam

The problem is that you were trying to install a package built for Red

mirror, e.g.,

  ftp://limestone.uoregon.edu/redhat/updates/9/en/os/i386/

and grab the php-* rpms. Try those instead.

Feh. PHP works fine with the Apache 2.x packages shipped with Red Hat 9.
Try those thoroughly before doing anything out of the ordinary.

Well, the "link below" assumed you were running Red Hat 7.3, since you
were trying to install a package built specifically for that
distribution.

Here are the packages I'm running on a Red Hat 9 web server:

  httpd-2.0.40-21.9
  php-4.2.2-17.2
  gd-1.8.4-11
  libpng-1.2.2-16

And here are the packages you tried to install:

I don't know about the gd-1.8.4-4 package. I'm using -11.

Here's what I see when I ask the gd package what it sort of png-ish
stuff it requires:

  [heinlein]$ rpm -qR gd | grep -i png
  libpng12.so.0

I don't see anything about libpng.so.2. Are you sure that the gd package
you've downloaded is intended for Red Hat 9?
