Which rpm are you thinking provides it? It should be one of the compat-libstdc++ rpm's - current libstdc++ provides a different version of that library. Try the following: yum install compat-libstdc++-33 That is what provides it. [testing@fc4t2 ~]$ rpm -qf /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.fc4 [testing@fc4t2 ~]$
