If you are using command line rpm, you have to install the dependent packages.
That said, all packages that mysql* is dependent on are on disc2.
Here's the output from an rpm install on a clean system. As you state, there
are failed dependencies which you have to resolve. This sequence of commands
was issued using only disc2 of the distro.
[root@tower RPMS]# rpm -Uvh mysql*
error: Failed dependencies:
perl(DBI) is needed by mysql-3.23.54a-11
perl-DBD-MySQL is needed by mysql-3.23.54a-11
perl-DBI is needed by mysql-3.23.54a-11
Suggested resolutions:
perl-DBD-MySQL-2.1021-3.i386.rpm
perl-DBI-1.32-5.i386.rpm
[root@tower RPMS]# rpm -Uvh mysql* perl-DBI* perl-DBD-MySQL*

Is there something I am missing in your complaint?
My output is a little different than yours because I installed rpmdb-redhat-9.
It's helpful when trying to track down failed dependencies.
Marking this as not a bug. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020823 Netscape/7.0 Description of problem: Cannot install mysql because of circular references of needing perl(CGI) and perl-DBD-mysql which need libmysqlclient.so.10 which is in the mysql rpm. Did someone really try to install this package after a basic install. Or is this an APRIL FOOLS joke that I don't get. to test take cd 2 and install mysql from the rpm packages on a machine with a basic install. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mysql-3.23.54a-11 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.use RedHat 9 cd #2 2.rpm -Uvh mysql* 3.solve dependancies without using anything not on the cd. Actual Results: Packages will NOT install Expected Results: It should install it always has in the past Additional info:
