Hey Y'all,
I'm having a problem installing a package with rpm. rpm is telling me that
I need some dependencies that I already have. Here's what I get:
[root@mushroom Desktop]# rpm -ivh graphiteone-*
error: Failed dependencies:
libGLU.so.1 is needed by graphiteone-libs-1.3-1.i586
libstdc++.so.5 is needed by graphiteone-libs-1.3-1.i586
libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2) is needed by graphiteone-libs-1.3-1.i586
libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2) is needed by
graphiteone-libs-1.3-1.i586
libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2.2) is needed by
graphiteone-libs-1.3-1.i586
[root@mushroom Desktop]#
[mlapier@mushroom lib]$ pwd
/usr/lib
[mlapier@mushroom lib]$ ls | grep GL
libGL.so
libGL.so.1
libGL.so.1.2
[mlapier@mushroom lib]$ ls | grep libstdc
What ls tells you is completely and utterly irrelevant. If you did not
Also libGL != libGLU
install a library via RPM, then RPM doesn't know anything about it. The
correct way to check a given dependency would be:
$ rpm -q --whatprovides 'libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2)'
no package provides libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2)
That's the answer you get on Fedora 8.
That's an answer you *might* get on Fedora 8 and only tells what we
already know, no package providing libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2) is
installed. A more useful answer:
$ repoquery --whatprovides 'libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2)'
compat-libstdc++-33-0:3.2.3-62.i386
Unlike rpm, repoquery knows what's available, not just installed.
The moral of the story really: use yum to install software - instead of
"rpm -Uvh graphiteone-*" try "yum localinstall graphiteone-*", it'll work
out the details for you if possible.
