Failed dependencies of rpm / how does RPM check for ?

Hey,

I've a problem installing a package. rpm -ivh brings the errors:

libjvm.so is needed by
libverify.so is needed by

But I have installed the Java SDK like requested and the files are on the disk. But I have no idea how to find out, why rpm cann't find them.

I have also checked the dependencie entries in the rpm file. There is not the absolut path but only the file names.

Can anyone help me on this

thx a lot

did you install java sdk via rpm? what rpm are you trying to install?

The Java Binaries dont install into some linux distro's default path setup, so when rpm checks for things, it doesnt find them where it wants them and thus comes up with a dependency issue. If you are confident everything is there than you can add a --nodeps tag to the rpm line from shell, and it will install.
