As recommended by all in my previous post I obtained a version of OS that's on the MQ v6.0 systems requirements supported OSs - RHEL v4.4.
The previouse library problem is solved.
Here's my new issue:
error: Failed dependencies:
mozilla >= 1.4.3 is needed by MQSeriesIES30-6.0.0-0.i386
Suggested resolutions:
seamonkey-1.0.3-0.el4.1.i386.rpm
I went to the rpm site
http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=mozilla&submit=Search+...&system=&arch=
Questions:
Which package to get?
What do I do with it when I get it?
I assume copy it to the dir with the mq pkgs and give it the old rpm -ivh command - but not sure. |

Just create a symlink from /usr/bin/firefox to /usr/bin/mozilla.

I created symlink /usr/bin/firefox->/usr/bin/mozilla-thunderbird which is another symlink /usr/bin/mozilla-thunderbird->/usr/bin/thunderbird.
Didn't solve problem.
Also created /usr/bin/mozilla->/usr/bin/firefox.
Still not working. |

Well, now I'm confused....
I thought thunderbird was the mail client... ?
You need a file called "mozilla" that's on the path, and should I think be in /usr/bin, that points to a binary that is at least a mozilla/firefox browser that reports a version > 1.4.3.
There should be an existing browser already installed in the distribution that meets that criteria - it's just not called "mozilla".
The other option is to use --nodeps to skip the dependency checking.

I think the package dependency is coded into the RPM packages. Therefore I think the check that is done is a check for the presence and version of an item in the RPM database, rather than a file in the filesystem.

I think you have to use --nodeps in order to get the MQSeriesIES30 package installed at all, in the absence of a mozilla >= 1.4.3
If you use --nodeps and have got MQSeriesIES30 installed, then that's the time to start thinking of symlinks to make it work at runtime.

I would normally hesitate to disagree with you, except that I know that creating a symlink works.
