What versions of the particular packages are you looking for? Try a Google search for the versions you need.

Hello,

I don't have all the RPMs, but I can tell you who does - IBM. More specifically, IBM host a collection of open source software pre-compiled in RPM binary package format for AIX which it calls the AIX Toolbox for Open Source Software. A quick Google for that should take you to the page, but for your convenience:

[AIX Toolbox for Open Source Software](https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/aix-toolbox-open-source-software-downloads-alpha)

You'll find many of the more common open-source packages pre-built here in RPM format, ready to download and install. Dependency resolution is something you'll either have to handle manually (in other words, download an RPM, try to install it, see what other packages you need first, download them, and repeat until you have everything you need), or use IBM's provided `dnf_aixtoolbox.sh` script, which will set up `dnf` for you to do open source package management.

Note that you won't get IBM vendor support for these - from IBM's point of view, they're worth exactly what you paid for them - but they should work, and IBM do put effort into maintaining the Toolbox (and more recently providing a dependency resolution front-end via `dnf`).

Anyway, see how you get on with that, and let us know if you still have issues. Hope this helps !
