if you KNOW that the files are there, you can do an rpm -i --nodeps to
ignore dependancies. The problem is rpm expects those dependancies to have
also been installed via rpm (same thing that installp expects, actually)

Subject: rpm help
okay, I bet this is pretty basic, but I'm stumped.
I'm trying to install some of the linuxtoosl from the aix/Linux toolbox
website. I have rpm installed
and apparently working. When I try to install a package, however, I get
dpednincy issues with libraries that I know
are available (libC.a for example)....any help? thanks.
/tmp/temp # env | grep LIB
LD_LIB_PATH=/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib
LIBPATH=/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib
/tmp/temp # rpm -i /tmp/temp/xpdf-1.00-1.aix4.3.ppc.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
