    Arrow [rpm] doesn't find existing dependecy package

    Hi there,
    I'm using Suse 10.2 and I'm trying to install this package
    pptpconfig-20060821-1suse.noarch.rpm

    It keeps asking me dependencies which already are in system, but aparently cannot find.

    Dependencied installed:

    /usr/lib/php-pcntl/lib
    /usr/lib/php-pcntl/lib/php

    And when I try to install it using the command line I get
    rpm --install pptpconfig-20060821-1suse.noarch.rpm
    warning: pptpconfig-20060821-1suse.noarch.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 862acc42
    error: Failed dependencies:
    /bin/php4-pcntl is needed by pptpconfig-20060821-1suse.noarch
    php4-pcntl >= 4.3.9-2 is needed by pptpconfig-20060821-1suse.noarch
    php4-pcntl-gtk is needed by pptpconfig-20060821-1suse.noarch

    How do I specify where the dependencies are?
    Thanks in advance

    It seems like the naming conventions are the ones making rpm think you do not have the required dependencies. Since you have newer versions of the needed packages, you probably could install it using the --nodeps flag e.g.
    Code:
    #rpm -Uvh --nodeps pptpconfig-20060821-1suse.noarch.rpm
