hi i want my rpm to check certain softwares installed and then only it should install. i used Requires prefix in my spec file but it can check only for the packages installed by RPM,not through a tar.gz file. can someone plz give a script or so that can check for these dependencies. for ex. i want j2sdk1.4.0 or greater should be installed before my rpm etc. regards garima _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
