You may be able to install the rpms with the --force flag, and if that doesn't work, try the --nodeps flag, which turns off dependency checking. That has always worked for me.

*sigh* oh, the joy of rpm's, how annoying :/

i am trying to install some commercial software which unfortunately is
only available as an RPM (to my knowlege - at least i have the rpms...)

strangely enough though after emergeing rpm and executing rpm -ihv
<package>.rpm it tells me that i don't fulful the requirements (i
manually checked.. and i *do* have all the .so's required - it doesn't
ask for packages, just so's)

any suggestions?
