Topic: 5.5 Update2 failed dependencies

[Petz]

Hi all.

I have just manually upgraded my esmith from 5.1.2 to 5.5 update1.
everything ok.

now i would like to upgrade (manually) to 5.5 update2 but:

rpm -Uvh e-smith-base-4.10.16-01.noarch.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        e-smith-lib >= 1.10.1 is needed by e-smith-base-4.10.16-01
        e-smith-formmagick >= 0.2.0 is needed by e-smith-base-4.10.16-01
        perl-gettext >= 1.01 is needed by e-smith-base-4.10.16-01

where can i get those rpms? and why i dont have them already?

i do the manually update because my server-manager says in the BladeFrame:

Supported blades
SMEServer-5.1.2_Update2 SMEServer v5.1.2 Update 2 **modified installed  
nothing more...

hm...

If you're running SME 5.1.2, you shouldn't be installing SME 5.5 updates.  They won't work.  Use 5.1.2 updates instead.

hm... i have updatet from 5.1.2 up1 to 5.1.2 up2

but i dont need the 5.5 updates?
and they wont work?

thx alot!!

[Dan Brown]

The 5.5 updates are only for 5.5.  If you don't have 5.5, you don't need them, and they won't work.  However, 5.1.2 is up to update 3.  Read this for more info:

I had the same problem, and I AM running 5.5  I worked arround it "Kinda" by running

rpm -Uvh --nodeps --replacepkgs *.rpm  

Does anyone know if this will jeapordize the validity of the update?

You can't have had the same problem.

You might get away with that.

Running 5.5 Update 2 as explained in the tech note I get:

rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs *.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        util-linux >= 2.10s-11 is needed by initscripts-5.83-1es5


If I run, rpm -Uvh --nodeps --replacepkgs *.rpm

it installs fine but I am worried about the util-linux >= 2.10s-11 dependency...

Have I need to worry in anyones oppinion?


Thanks
