First thing I'd try is putting all the required .rpms in the same
directory, then do:
ls |grep .rpm|xargs rpm -Uvh
That'll let rpm sort out the dependencies. If that doesn't work, try
the same command with --nodeps at the end. That's the "shut up, I
know what I'm doing" approach ... sometimes necessary.
If someone else has a more graceful solution, please jump in and shut
me up.
