You didn't give details, but I assume you're trying to install glpk from Fedora development on Fedora Core 4? Development RPMs can't always be expected to be binary compatible with FC4. Before now, GLPK was only in the development branch, but I am in the process of adding it to FC4 Extras. I will put a message here when it is released. If you need glpk-utils for FC4 immediately, I suggest downloading the source RPM and rebuilding it for your system.
glpk has now been added to FC-4, and the newly released version 4.8-3 should not have this problem.
Great. Many thanks. I installed with yum from the Extras repository. It works!!!
