# rpm -ivh mrtg-2.9.17-13.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libgd.so.1.8 is needed by mrtg-2.9.17-13
libgd.so.1.8 is provided by gd-1.8.4-11.i386.rpm
# rpm -ivh gd-1.8.4-11.i386.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
package gd-2.0.23-hc1 (which is newer than gd-1.8.4-11) is already installed
OK
I do:
# locate libgd.so
/usr/lib/libgd.so.2
/usr/lib/libgd.so.2.0.0
As I have libgd.so.2 I make a symbolic link:
ln -s /usr/lib/libgd.so.2 /usr/lib/libgd.so.1.8
SO I got:
/usr/lib/libgd.so.1.8 -> /usr/lib/libgd.so.2
/usr/lib/libgd.so.2 -> libgd.so.2.0.0
/usr/lib/libgd.so.2.0.0
But still I get
# rpm -ivh mrtg-2.9.17-13.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libgd.so.1.8 is needed by mrtg-2.9.17-13
should that not be backward compatible with libgd.so.1.8?
And should the symbolic link not fix this issue?
Running ldconfig doesn;’t help either.
Tried the yum install mrtg and get an error along the same lines

Package mrtg needs libgd.so.1.8, this is not available.
I even copied this library from another RH9 system which does have this
installed but no good.
Should I force an RPM install of gd-1.8.4-11.i386.rpm ? Not sure about doing
that, can installing an older package create problems for the newer one or can
they coexist?
Maybe I'm missing something?
