Ok. Can you document this in the php build instructions?

Here's what happens when I try to upgrade the relevent RPMS:
[root@celery i386]# rpm -Uvh fam*
error: Failed dependencies:
portmap is needed by fam-2.6.8-4
libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2) is needed by fam-2.6.8-4
[root@celery i386]# rpm -Uvh portmap-4.0-46.i386.rpm
libstdc++-3.2-7.i386.rpm libstdc++-devel-3.2-7.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 is needed by (installed) pspell-0.12.2-8
libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 is needed by (installed) groff-1.17.2-12
libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 is needed by (installed)
postgresql-libs-7.2.2-0.1PGDG
libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 is needed by (installed) php-4.1.2-7.3.4
libstdc++ = 2.96 is needed by (installed) gcc-c++-2.96-110
libstdc++.so.4 is needed by (installed) aspell-0.33.7.1-13
libstdc++.so.4(GLIBCPP_3.1) is needed by (installed)
aspell-0.33.7.1-13
libstdc++-devel = 2.96 is needed by (installed) gcc-c++-2.96-110
So, to install FAM, I need to upgrade, amongst other things, php and gcc.
the latest release php rpm from Redhat only works with apache2, I believe
(I've been round that loop several times) and I'm sticking with apache1
for the time-being.
As you see, it's not as straight-forward as just installing a single package.
I revisited this following your reply and found that I actually have
libstdc++.so.5 installed (from libstdc++-3.2-0.1) and I managed to
install fam using the "--nodeps" option.
Cheers,
R.
