I'm trying to install python on my RH 7.2 machine. I mount the CD, and cd over to the
RPMS
directory, and
$ sudo rpm -i python-1.5.2-35.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
libz.so.1 is needed by python-1.5.2-35
I then
$ sudo find /usr -name 'libz.so*'
and I find the shared object.
Now I know that this is because I've probably installed some software w/o rpm that
installed the
libz shared object.
My questions are:
1. What's an easy way to find what RH rpm (preferably located on the RH 7.2 disk
set)? I already
tried http://www.rpmfind.net. I also searched Red Hat's site.
2. I already know that I can force rpm to install python, even with that error. But
can I, in
some way manually update the RPM database?
