This is one of the reasons I built my own apt repository. This way I put an rpm in my apt RPMS.addons directory and rebuild the apt database and then I can go apt-get install whateverpackage and the dependencies are resolved and installed as well. one way to locate the rpms you need is to install the rpmdb-redhat package and use the --redhatprovides switch. This wil read the rpmdb that includes all the redhat packages. I put all your deps into a file : [bhughes@bretsony bhughes]$ cat /tmp/tora.deps libDCOP.so.4 libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_3.0) libkdecore.so.4 libkdeprint.so.4 libkdeui.so.4 libkhtml.so.4 libkio.so.4 libkparts.so.2 libqt-mt.so.3 libstdc++.so.5 libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2) libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2) [bhughes@bretsony bhughes]$ then ran this little oneliner (thisis on a rh7.3 box) [bhughes@bretsony bhughes]$ for dep in `cat /tmp/tora.deps`; do echo -n "$dep provided by "; rpm -q --redhatprovides $dep ;done libDCOP.so.4 provided by kdelibs-3.0.0-10 libgcc_s.so.1 provided by no package provides libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_3.0) provided by no package provides libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_3.0) libkdecore.so.4 provided by kdelibs-3.0.0-10 libkdeprint.so.4 provided by kdelibs-3.0.0-10 libkdeui.so.4 provided by kdelibs-3.0.0-10 libkhtml.so.4 provided by kdelibs-3.0.0-10 libkio.so.4 provided by kdelibs-3.0.0-10 libkparts.so.2 provided by kdelibs-3.0.0-10 libqt-mt.so.3 provided by qt-3.0.3-11 libstdc++.so.5 provided by no package provides libstdc++.so.5 libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2) provided by no package provides libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2) libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2) provided by no package provides libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2) so looking at this kdelibs and qt are needed as well as a couple that did not resolve most likely due to the note in parens I'll leave to you to find those (I would remove the text in parens and try that.
