I downloaded the RPM's from the Chicago mirror site and saved the files in a directory "/data/downloads/mysql". I then maneuvered there using the GUI file manager and double-clicked on the file names. That caused a GUI to open up and it displayed status as it checked things out. When it displayed "Computing package dependencies", another dialog window opened up displaying a heading of "Packages Not Found" with additional text "The following packages could not be found on your system. Installation cannot continue until they are installed". Below that message was a table with two columns, which had headings and data as follows:
Unlocatable package Required by libmysqlclient.so.10 libdbi-dbd-mysql libmysqlclient.so.10 mod_auth_mysql libmysqlclient.so.10 MyODBC libmysqlclient.so.10 MySQL-Python libmysqlclient.so.10 perl-DBD-MySQL libmysqlclient.so.10 qt-MySQL libmysqlclient.so.10 php-mysql These messages are still displayed on my screen.

Hmm, I cannot reproduce this: $ rpm -qRp MySQL-server-4.0.12-0.i386.rpm fileutils sh-utils /bin/sh /bin/sh /usr/bin/perl Our MySQL server package does not have that dependency. Would you mind posting the exact error message you get, including the exact command you used? Thanks!
