Hi folks, To solve the problem below following Dave Sheilds advice I tried to install "elfutils-libelf-devel-0.97.1-3.i386.rpm", it tells me that package "elfutils-libelf" is not found. So I tried to install "elfutils-libelf-0.97.1-3.i386.rpm" and it tells me that package "elfutils-libelf" is not found, strange considering I'm trying to install that package. Am I doing something wrong?
I'm using RHEL4.

No - that won't work. The RPM system is very egotistical, and assumes that it knows everything about the software installed on the system. If a package hasn't been installed "properly" (i.e. via the RPM system), then it assumes that it doesn't exist. I'm not familiar with the exact configuration in place on RHEL systems, but there's on many systems there's a command "yum" which will take care of detecting (and dealing with) such dependencies. So "yum install beecrypt-devel" would install the beecrypt-devel RPM, plus any other missing packages that it required. RHEL may have a different version of this tool (or an equivalent), but that's by far the simplest way to install new software. Maybe someone here can fill in the gaps as to the exact incantation/tool to use? Uninstall the manual version of the beecrypt libraries, and try with that.
