Try using the "ignore dependencies" flag on RPM to override the dependency checking.
Ugly, but it might work.
Alternatively, start from source and built it yourself.

Frustratingly, I can't get the geotiff packages to install. I have installed
libproj0-4.4.5-2mdk.i586.rpm, libgeotiff1-1.1.4-6mdk.i586.rpm and
libgeotiff1-devel-1.1.4-6mdk.i586.rpm. But...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] rpms]# rpm -ivh geotiff-1.1.4-6mdk.i586.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
libgeotiff.so is needed by geotiff-1.1.4-6mdk
I don't really understand why this is a problem, because the libraries seem to
be installed OK (the indirect symbolic linking seems odd, but valid)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] rpms]# ls -l /usr/lib/libgeo* /usr/lib/geo*
## listing edited to reduce line length ##
/usr/lib/libgeotiff.so -> geotiff.so.1.1.4*
/usr/lib/geotiff.so.1.1.4 -> /usr/lib/libgeotiff.so.1.1.4*
1789726 Jan 30 2003 /usr/lib/libgeotiff.a*
1633716 Jan 30 2003 /usr/lib/libgeotiff.so.1.1.4*
...and ldconfig knows about them...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] rpms]# ldconfig -p | grep geo
libgeotiff.so.1.1.4 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libgeotiff.so.1.1.4
libgeotiff.so (libc6) => /usr/lib/libgeotiff.so
Anyone know how to unstick this? geotiff gives us a tool to read the tags in
the TIFF files.
