It might have errata (update 2, perhaps?) build off of 7.3. I've never heard of anyone providing apt or yum repositories for anything RHEL, since only Red Hat distributes binary rpms for the Enterprise stuff. > 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! No disrespect, but if you don't have the stomach for it, you probably shouldn't a) be using tora or b) be using Red Hat. Don't blame the platform (IMO) for the way the package maintainer (tora) distributes the software. It's pretty obvious that you're unfamiliar with the versioning between the various distributions, you're bound to break something very soon. It would save us all a lot of traffic volume and wasted time if you want to just give me ssh access, and I'll install it for you. -- Jason Dixon, RHCE DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
