Hi Ian, On Tuesday, December 04, 2001, 11:46:40 PM, you babbled something about:
ID> I installed perl from source, not from and rpm and now any time I install ID> anything that depends on perl it says ID> error failed dependancies: ID> /usr/bin/perl is needed by whatever.rpm ID> I do have a /usr/bin/perl and it does work, and if I install the rpm with --nodeps ID> it installs and it works. ID> How do I tell the rpm database that I have a /usr/bin/perl?? You could get a recent version of perl (rpm) and do a... rpm -ivh --justdb perl.whatever.rpm Untested, but should solve most of your problems. Have fun, -- _________________________________________________________________ Brian Ashe CTO [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dee-Web Software Services, LLC. http://www.dee-web.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------- You don't have to swim faster than the shark...
