Rob, you can find all of the dependencies either on your d/l CDs or by going 
to  http://www.rpmfind.net/   and doing a search on the item.  The lib files 
you list are part of a larger library package as denoted by the .so.2 or  
.so.6  but if you search using that name it will find the main library 
package for you and you can download from the web. HTH
