rpm dependencies

[abhishek456]

hi,

i am using 64bit centos-5
i want to install a package which requires some dependencies.

GUI software manager is not working properly

package through yum is not available online. so i downloaded rpm file of the software, now when i try too install downloaded package it's giving me dependency error

can yum download dependencies when i install local package


if yes how to do it

Hi,

Mount the OS cd & create a local repository (point to packages location in cd) in YUM. Once you are ready execute yum clean all (will build the repo) then run yum install <package name>, it will automatically resolve the dependencies if they are available in the local repo.

Regds,

Vibin

no.

the best you can do is "rpm -qR downloaded.rpm" to check the dependencies.

or

check if there is any repo that provides the package you want to install.

avobe, it is my missunderstanding.

PLEASE TRY " yum localinstall downloaded.rpm".

good luck!

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.
