We've got RH7.2 installed, and I'm working on upgrading the gnupg package.
I think I've found most of the pre-req packages that also need upgrading,
except I'm unsure about a few RPM dependencies that are showing up.
In running rpm --test for the following packages to be installed or
upgraded:
gnupg-1.2.3-3
glibc-2.3.3-10
glibc-common-2.3.3-10
glibc-devel-2.3.3-10
glibc-headers-2.3.3-10
binutils-2.14.90.0.8-8
libgcc-3.3.3-2
tzdata-2003d-2
error: failed dependencies:
rpmlib(PartialHardlinkSets) <= 4.0.4-1 is needed by
glibc-common-2.3.3-10
rpmlib(PartialHardlinkSets) <= 4.0.4-1 is needed by tzdata-2003d-2
perl(Getopt::Std) is needed by gnupg-1.2.3-3
The versions of rpm and perl that are installed are:
rpm-4.0.3-1.03c
perl-5.6.1-26.72.3a
It seems like the rpmlib error is asking for a release less than 4.0.4,
which we have; unless I am misreading the message! What does this message
really mean, and can it safely be ignored? What is needed to satisfy the
perl Getopt::Std dependency? From what I've been able to find, this should
be included in releases of perl much older than 5.6.
Thanks for any insight!
