Fedora Core 3
Trying to install httpd-2.0.52-3.1.i386.rpm

I have resolved all dependencies apart from -

httpd-2.0.52-3.1.i386.rpm --dependancy--> httpd-suexec-2.0.52-3.1.i386.rpm
httpd-suexec-2.0.52-3.1.i386.rpm --dependancy--> httpd-2.0.52-3.1.i386.rpm

Caught in a circle as can't seem to install one without the other!

Any ideas?

Try installing them simultaneously

but uhrm, I'd also try asking whoever supplied the rpm

Code:

rpm -Uhv httpd-suexec-2.0.52-3.1.i386.rpm httpd-2.0.52-3.1.i386.rpm

that installs em both at the same time

if it still wont work pass it the --nodeps flag

ok, you have the rpm files...create a new directory in your home directory, name it...JinJ, and move the rpm files into it. then open a terminal such as konsole or xterm, cd into JinJ and type

su
your password
rpm -ivh *.rpm

and they should install for you...

Thanks guys - doing them both at once worked

Never thought of that.
I had tried to use --force but it didn't work....

Thanks again!!

You could download and install apt4rpm, which is available (I think) from apt4rpm.sourceforge.net.

Set it up as per the instructions, and then you should be able to run

Code:

aptget install httpd

and it will automatically download and install httpd, and all dependancies.

I hope this helps

If you had used yum or apt, you wouldn't have faced such problems. I'd urge you to take some time and setup either yum or apt, you'll be amazed at how much time and effort you'll save yourself when it comes to package managment on your system.
