After wrangling with Sendmail some more...I've decided to repost this one from a few days back.
-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Postifix on Redhat 7.2 Date: Sat, 02 Feb 2002 14:59:31 -0500 From: Ian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] OK, I've always had a bugger working with sendmail, but I had almost immediate success when I experimented with postfix. Postfix however isn't included with RH7.2 W/S. I found an SRPM for postifix built by redhat, but it needs 'db4-devel' to build. Which was available from the same spot as the Postfix rpms. So I built all the db4 rpms, which obsolete/conflict with the installed db3 packages already there. db4-devel conflicts with db3-devel: (Sorry 'bout the wrap) # [root@innie i386]# rpm -ivh --test ./db4-devel-4.0.14-2.i386.rpm # Preparing... ########################################### [100%] # file /lib/libdb.so from install of db4-devel-4.0.14-2\ conflicts with file from package db3-devel-3.2.9-4 # file /usr/include/db.h from install of db4-devel-4.0.14-2\ conflicts with file from package # db3-devel-3.2.9-4 # file /usr/lib/libdb_cxx.so from install of db4-devel-4.0.14-2\ conflicts with file from package db3-devel-3.2.9-4 I can't remove db3 without causing problems: # [root@innie root]# rpm -e --test db3 # error: removing these packages would break dependencies: # db3 = 3.2.9 is needed by db3-devel-3.2.9-4 # db3 = 3.2.9 is needed by db3-utils-3.2.9-4 # libdb-3.2.so is needed by perl-5.6.0-17 # libdb-3.2.so is needed by sendmail-8.11.6-3 # libdb-3.2.so is needed by python-1.5.2-35 # libdb-3.2.so is needed by nss_ldap-172-2 # libdb-3.2.so is needed by php-4.0.6-7 # libdb-3.2.so is needed by db3-utils-3.2.9-4 # libdb-3.2.so is needed by apache-1.3.22-2 # libdb-3.2.so is needed by pam-0.75-19 So, my question is: Can I safely force the db4-devel rpm to overwrite the db3-files it conflicts with? If not, what to do?
