Description Becky Miller 2001-01-17 00:16:40 UTC
RPMs for RH 7 were downloaded from priority.redhat.com and installed using
rpm -Fvh.  The output showing dependencies is shown below.  This same
process worked without errors about a month ago.  I entered this bug under
glibs but other packages are affected also.


error: failed dependencies:
        glibc-common = 2.2 is needed by glibc-2.2-12
        /usr/bin/getent   is needed by stunnel-3.10-2
        libmysqlclient.so.9 is needed by php-mysql-4.0.3pl1-1

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2001-01-17 10:09:49 UTC
If you e.g. look at the errata page, it clearly states that one should
upgrade:
rpm -Uvh glibc-2.2-12* glibc-common-2.2-12*
rpm -Fvh glibc-devel-2.2-12* glibc-profile-2.2-12* nscd-2.2-12*
(glibc was split into glibc and glibc-common, thus rpm -F won't work on it).
