Ok I downloaded apt-get. By the way I have Red Hat Enterprise AS 2.1 will the version of apt-get for Red Hat Linux 9 work ok? From what I understand version 9 and AS 2.1 are the same other than the clustering and multi processor etc. What does the i386 mean? When I went to install it I now have dependencies # rpm -i apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1.i386.rpm error: failed dependencies: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3) is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 libelf.so.1 is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 libgcc_s.so.1 is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_3.0) is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 librpm-4.2.so is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 librpmdb-4.2.so is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 librpmio-4.2.so is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 libstdc++.so.5 is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2) is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2) is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2.2) is needed by apt-0.5.5cnc6-fr1 So I checked on the first dependency on rpmfind.net and it also has dependencies # rpm -i glibc-2.3.2-27.9.i386.rpm error: failed dependencies: glibc-common = 2.3.2-27.9 is needed by glibc-2.3.2-27.9 glibc > 2.2.4 conflicts with glibc-common-2.2.4-32.8 This is frustrating!
