Can someone give me the command list that will install

Perl IO::Pty and Perl IO::Tty modules in RED HAT

Im trying to install a rpm package but I get the following error

Code:

perl IO::Pty  need by perl-Expect-1.17-1.rh9.rf.noarch.rpm 
perl IO::Tty  need by perl-Expect-1.17-1.rh9.rf.noarch.rpm

First of all: upgrade your machine; RH9 is so obsolete that even
dinosaurs barely remembered it when they still roamed this earth.

2ndly: both packages come available via EPEL for current versions
of RedHat/Centos....

Cheers,
Tink

Im having RD linux server 5.5 Beta (Tikanga)

DO I need to look for 5.5 rpm packages only ?

The perl modules IO::Pty and IO::Tty are in the EL5 package 'perl-IO-Tty'

Setup the EPEL.repo https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL

And install all the packages with : # yum install perl-Expect
