Description Pete Matthews 2011-04-19 14:45:32 UTC
Description of problem:  RHEL-5 has libXm.so.3 and .4; RHEL-6 has .3 only.  Neither has .2.  These all seem to be part of openmotif, which is installed on the system.  There is no openmotif on EPEL.

ddd-3.3.11 from EPEL installs on RHEL-5 i386 or x86_64.  ddd-3.3.12 from EPEL will not install on RHEL-6 (i686 and x86_64 tested), because it requires unavailable libXm.so.2.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ddd-3.3.12

How reproducible: easy, on RHEL-6.0

Steps to Reproduce:
1. download ddd-3.3.12-5.el6.x86_64.rpm and RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6

2. rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6

3. yum -y localinstall ddd-3.3.12-5.el6.x86_64.rpm

  
Actual results:
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Package: ddd-3.3.12-5.el6.x86_64 (/ddd-3.3.12-5.el6.x86_64)
           Requires: libXm.so.2()(64bit)

Expected results:
successful install, as for ddd-3.3.11-14.el5.4.x86_64.rpm on RHEL-5

Additional info: 
Unable to use EPEL as a yum repository, blocked by corporate firewall.

Workaround exists using the binary package for lesstif found at the following address:
http://elders.princeton.edu/data/puias/6/x86_64/os/Addons/lesstif-0.95.2-1.puias6.x86_64.rpm

Comment 2 jean-baptiste.veslin 2013-03-06 13:09:11 UTC
I have the same problem with i686 on CentOS 6.3 (libXm.so.4 is available but ddd-3.3.12-5 requires libXm.so.2)

Comment 3 Gwyn Ciesla 2013-03-13 16:35:35 UTC
lesstif exists in EPEL, and provides the correct libary, ddd installs and runs.
