First check if libz.so.1 was installed through rpm - rpm -qf /usr/lib/libz.so.1 if it returns a package, then it's okay. most likely zlib. You should also check the required packages for what you want to install, and check if the zlib version matches. If not, you will have to possibly upgrade zlib. If you are sure that you have all the prerequisites, and that rpm has got it wrong, then do a rpm --nodeps -i xxxxx.rpm this will install without dependency checking, so isn't reccommended unless you know what you are doing. man rpm. -- It's easier to be terrified by an enemy you admire. -THUFIR HAWAT, Mentat and Security Commander to House Atreides _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
