Many thanks to J.A.Magallon for his effective help.
I got all the stuff he told plus sash as below, but I couldn't get rid of
the installed db3 as can be seen:
error: failed dependencies:
glibc > 2.1.3 conflicts with db3-3.1.14-0.3.6x
sash >= 3.4-6mdk is needed by glibc-2.2-21mdk
[root@localhost 2-2-4mdk]# rpm -Uvh *rpm
error: failed dependencies:
glibc > 2.1.3 conflicts with db3-3.1.14-0.3.6x
[root@localhost 2-2-4mdk]#
Please, can you help me a little more?
Thanks again
Alberto Vorano
