Re: [firebird-support] Install 2.1 on RH 6
Thanks a lot, it worked! And I even remembered that 7 years ago I knew that :( I still couldn't install the rpm - yum complained the architecture amd_64 is different from x86_64, then rpm itself was still looking for libncurses.so.5 is needed by FirebirdSS-2.1.7.18553-0.amd64 libstdc++.so.5 is needed by FirebirdSS-2.1.7.18553-0.amd64 But the tar.gz installed alright (still getting some complaint - /usr/bin/dirname: extra operand `-start') and the service is now working.

Can anyone suggest anything else to try before I start trying to compile from sources? (Never done that and have the impression it may not be that easy). Thanks Emil
