Hello,
I'm trying to install Memprof from Owen's homepage. This is on my
i386 Mandrake 6.1 system.
Unfortunately:
[root@localhost dereks]# rpm -ivh memprof-0.3.0-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
libbfd-2.9.1.0.24.so is needed by memprof-0.3.0-1
I have this:
[root@localhost dereks]# rpm -qa | grep binutils
binutils-2.9.1.0.25-5mdk
...which has this:
[root@localhost dereks]# rpm -ql binutils | grep libbfd
/usr/lib/libbfd-2.9.1.0.25.so
/usr/lib/libbfd.a
/usr/lib/libbfd.la
/usr/lib/libbfd.so
...but I have the more up-to-date libbfd-2.9.1.0.25.so instead of
libbfd-2.9.1.0.24.so that is needed by Memprof. This is not just a
problem with the RPM, either: the binary actually requires that version:
[root@localhost dereks]# rpm -i --nodeps memprof-0.3.0-1.i386.rpm
user otaylor does not exist - using root
group otaylor does not exist - using root
[...many repeats of the otaylor error, it'd be nice to fix this...]
[root@localhost dereks]# ldd /usr/bin/memprof | grep libbfd
libbfd-2.9.1.0.24.so => not found
I really don't feel like downgrading my libbfd.so, or like fscking
up my RPM database by installing .tar.gz distributed libraries. Is there
anything I can do? This is really annoying.

P.S.> I'm curious as to why libbfd-2.9.1.0.24.so is required, instead of
simply libbfd.so...?
