Description svalente 1999-01-24 04:53:29 UTC
I installed RedHat 5.2 with the XFree86 component but
without the Development component.  xrdb fails because
it can't find /lib/cpp.

I think the best solution is to make a "cpp" rpm that
contains /lib/cpp as an actual file (instead of a symlink)
and make the packages with xrdb and imake require the cpp
rpm.

This has been done in Raw Hide. Here's the package list for cpp

rpm -qlp /D/6.0/i386/cpp-1.1.1-7.i386.rpm
/lib/cpp
/usr/info/cpp.info.gz
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/egcs-2.91.60.1/cpp
/usr/man/man1/cccp.1
/usr/man/man1/cpp.1
