All, thank you!! I downloaded libXp-1.0.0-8.i386.rpm from RHN and installed it using the familiar rpm -ivh commands and all worked. Yum wasn't really happy: [root@zimmer oracle]# yum install libXp-1.0.0-8.i386.rpm Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security Setting up Install Process Examining libXp-1.0.0-8.i386.rpm: libXp-1.0.0-8.i386 libXp-1.0.0-8.i386.rpm: does not update installed package. Nothing to do So yum is not yumm, nope, nada.. :)) Thanks again, M 2010/4/30 Kjetil Strønen <kjetil@xxxxxxxxxx> > On Fri, 2010-04-30 at 11:27 -0400, Masha Gurenich wrote: > > Hi list, > > > > I am trying to install the subj and it fails with the following > > error: > > <snip> > > > java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: > /tmp/OraInstall2010-04-30_09-40-45AM/jre/1.4.2/lib/i386/libawt.so: > libXp.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory > > > > I checked if the package is installed, it looks like it is: > > > > [root@zimmer ~]# yum provides libXp.so.6 > > Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security > > libXp-1.0.0-8.i386 : X.Org X11 libXp runtime library > > Repo : rhel-i386-server-5 > > Matched from: > > Other : libXp.so.6 > > <snip> > > > [root@zimmer ~]# rpm -qa --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE} > > (%{ARCH})\n" | grep libXp > > libXpm-3.5.5-3 (i386) > > > > > > I am not really clear why the versions of the packages differ in yum > > in rpm -q, but at least it is obvious that the package is on the > > place. > > No, libXp != libXpm. > > [root@<hosr> ~]# yum list libXp* > Loaded plugins: security > Installed Packages > libXp.i386 1.0.0-8.1.el5 installed > libXpm.x86_64 3.5.5-3 installed > > --Kjetil > > -- > //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l > > >
