Hi all: I sent this on August 9th and have't see any ideas. I would realy like to get this rpm properly built and installed, so does anybody have any idea what is going on here? Could the problem be the non-standard version 1.4.2_05 identifer (specifically the _05 tag) causing an issue? Any debugging steps I can take with RPM to try to figure out why version 1.4.2_05 != 1.4.2_05? === original message I am trying to install a locally built RPM. using rpm 4.3.3 on centos 4.3. When trying to install it I get: sudo rpm -U pipe-0.2.1-2.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: j2sdk = 1.4.2_05 is needed by pipe-0.2.1-2.i386 However rpm -q --qf '%{VERSION}\n' j2sdk reports: 1.4.2_05 this is the j2sdk as downloaded from sun so the version number is theirs. In my spec file for pipe I have (wrapped below): Requires: libreadline-java >= 0.8.0, iptables-devel, j2sdk = 1.4.2_05, ucspi-tcp and there is no complaint about libreadline-java, and the rpm built successfully. So what's going on here I'm confused. Thanks for your help. === end original -- -- rouilj John Rouillard System Administrator Renesys Corporation 603-643-9300 x 111 _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
