Hi all..
I'm hoping for a little help. I have a RH8 server that I am trying to
set up with MySQL. I also have RH8 running on my laptop, so I figured
I'd use the laptop (which I can take home) as my test/learning machine.
I installed MySQL on the desktop when I built the machine.
I didn't do that with the laptop, so today I tried to install all the
SQL Database server components (5/5) using the PACKAGES tool. The
install fails stating that "postgresql-libs = 7.2.2" is not installed.
So I grabbed my CDs and found the missing RPM
(postgresql-libs-7.2.2-1.i386.rpm) and tried to install it all by
itself. It fails saying: "A newer version of postgresql-libs" is
currently installed."
So, ok... I'm no wizard at RPM but here goes... open up a terminal and:
$ rpm -qa |grep post
postfix-1.1.11-5
postgresql-libs-7.2.3-5.80
[dluxe@localhost rpm]$ rpm -e postgresql-libs-7.2.3-5.80
error: Failed dependencies:
libpq.so.2 is needed by (installed) xemacs-21.4.8-16
libpq.so.2 is needed by (installed) mod_auth_pgsql-0.9.12-11
libpq.so.2 is needed by (installed) php-pgsql-4.2.2-8.0.7
postgresql-libs is needed by (installed) php-pgsql-4.2.2-8.0.7
So, I can't remove the newer version either. I might be missing
something obvious since I am a newbie. But I can't find any relevant
docs around and googling didn't get me a lot that made sense.
Can anyone tell me what I should do (short of rebuilding this laptop)?
Feel free to post or email replies.
Thanks,
Mystical D
