Hi Fabio, [ please just call me Nick ;) ] for the glibc and glibc-devel packages I ran up2date from the command line, this installed the 32 bit packages as the 64 bit packages were already installed when I installed the OS. I also installed all the compat-* libs from the installation CD's. I must stress that we are using RHAS4 and having just checked one of our servers I see that we did not have to install 2 versions of libstdc++, we just have the 64 bit version of libstdc++ installed. Here is a list of the relevant RPM's I have installed - compat-db-4.1.25-9 compat-gcc-32-3.2.3-47.3 compat-gcc-32-c++-3.2.3-47.3 compat-glibc-2.3.2-95.30 compat-glibc-headers-2.3.2-95.30 compat-libgcc-296-2.96-132.7.2 compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-132.7.2 compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3 glibc-2.3.4-2.13 glibc-2.3.4-2.13 glibc-common-2.3.4-2.13 glibc-devel-2.3.4-2.13 glibc-devel-2.3.4-2.13 glibc-headers-2.3.4-2.13 glibc-kernheaders-2.4-9.1.87 libstdc++-3.4.3-9.EL4 libstdc++-devel-3.4.3-9.EL4 Good Luck, Nick . > -----Original Message----- > From: Fábio Augusto [mailto:fabiomirmar@xxxxxxxxx] > Sent: 16 November 2005 14:26 > To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list > Subject: Re: Problems to Install Oracle Client 10g over Red Hat AS > 3.0update3 > > > Hi Mr. Lunt, > > I don't like to use the --nodeps too, that's the last choice to the > administrator.
