Ok, here's what I get:
# rpm -Uvh db1-1.85-1mdk.i586.rpm db2-2.4.14-1mdk.i586.rpm glibc-2.1.92-2mdk.i586.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
basesystem is needed by glibc-2.1.92-2mdk
# rpm -Uvh basesystem-7.2-1mdk.i586.rpm db1-1.85-1mdk.i586.rpm
db2-2.4.14-1mdk.i586.rpm glibc-2.1.92-2mdk.i586.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
console-tools is needed by basesystem-7.2-1mdk
ntsysv is needed by basesystem-7.2-1mdk
grub is needed by basesystem-7.2-1mdk
So I needed "basesystem" in order to get glibc 2.1.92 installed. But to
install basesystem, I need to further install grub, ntsysv and
console-tools. But I don't want at least two of those. For example, why
should grub be a requirement of glibc and/or basesystem? I use LILO.
Thots?
