I need to install OpenAFS client on RHEL4. When installation started I
get failure because:
# rpm -Uvh openafs*rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libncurses.so.5 is needed by openafs-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386
kernel-hugemem = 2.6.9-5.EL is needed by
openafs-kernel-hugemem-1.4.0-2.6.9_5.ELhugemem_1.i686
The first dependency is met since
# rpm -qa | grep -i ncurse
ncurses-5.4-13
ncurses-devel-5.4-13
I found newer versions of ncurses.so.5 at rpmfind (ncurses-5.4-19.fc4).
So should I use rpm to remove the version I have & upgrade? Or should I
just force the openafs installation with the --nodeps option?
Second, which kernel RPM to get.
openafs-kernel-hugemem-1.4.0-2.6.9_5.ELhugemem_1.i686.rpm or
openafs-kernel-smp-1.4.0-2.6.9_5.ELsmp_1.i686.rpm
The first is what the openafs-kernel-version.sh script recommends.
But the second is what I get from output of "uname -a"
# uname -a
Linux .... 2.6.9-5.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jan 5 19:29:47 EST 2005 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Please advise...
