library version


I will install a application to RHEL 5 linux box , but when I install it , it pop the system (RHEL 5) library is newer than the application that is supported , that mean the application is not supported on RHEL5 ( my application is very old system ) , except downgrade the library ( re-install the older version of library) , can advise how can I "cheat" the application when installation , so that the application is supported on the system ? thx

You didn't mention the libraries that the application needs? Sometimes old libraries are available for newer distros.
