Re: [qmailtoaster] spamassassin-toaster-3.2.5-1.3.14 || problem on dependencies || 64 bit CentOS 5 (Resolved)
Eric, there was a major issue with zlib in July 2005 which were eliminated with version 1.2.3; all distributors updated their packages in the meantime (most backported the security relevant code from 1.2.3 to 1.2.2-x version/release) there is really no need anymore to link this library at qmailtoaster or to install it on a newer distribution. Johannes Eric Shubert schrieb: Thanks for explaining that, Dan. I'm guessing that there's probably no need to have a zlib package on the QMT site any more, but I don't know why it's there to begin with, so I could be wrong about that.

Luis, you could uninstall the package using rpm -e --allmatches --nodeps --justdb zlib-devel zlib That removes all matching packages from the rpm database ignoring all dependencies. After that reinstall that original package that came with your distribution: rpm -Uhv --replacefiles zlib-.rpm That should solve your problems with the rpm-database that lists the package twice.

BE CAREFUL Johannes!!! A LOT of people administer their Linux boxes remotely -- usually via SSH. If you REMOVE the zlib package, your SSH connection *_/will /_*drop and you will be unable to reconnect. (Not surprisingly, SSH is very dependent on the zlib package for its encryption compression over the ssh channels!) So IF you feel the need to uninstall zlib (IMHO, not a good idea), make SURE you're not cutting off your access to your server! As for the dependency of zlib djbdns, I have both commented out in my build (and update) scripts. I learned ISC's bind many MANY years ago, so I never switched to djbdns anyway -- although I do agree with Daniel's rationale for creating it -- the caching server and authoritative server SHOULD be separate. The problem I have with that is that this means you cannot (easily) have a server that serves both roles, because both use port 53 -- and it's too late to re-invent DNS at this point! (That being said -- I actually started using djbdns on a hosted linux server last month -- it only has to be an authoritative server, and it is faster than bind in that role.

Dan, you are right; one must be very carefull uninstall the zlib; but the --justdb Option should uninstall the package only in in the rpm database. regarding djbdns - I use it on several locations, it works nicely; I run the caching daemon on the main IP and the auth nameserver (for usage within offices) on an virtual interface (like eth0:ns).

Ufff no good then. I haven't removed any zlib package as of this point. Thank God I got this message before that ;), saved me a 3 hours emergency trip lmao. I'll do my research on that one carefully. Sincerely, Luis Lopez Dan McAllister wrote: BE CAREFUL Johannes!!! A LOT of people administer their Linux boxes remotely -- usually via SSH. If you REMOVE the zlib package, your SSH connection *_/will /_*drop and you will be unable to reconnect. (Not surprisingly, SSH is very dependent on the zlib package for its encryption compression over the ssh channels!) So IF you feel the need to uninstall zlib (IMHO, not a good idea), make SURE you're not cutting off your access to your server! As for the dependency of zlib djbdns, I have both commented out in my build (and update) scripts. I learned ISC's bind many MANY years ago, so I never switched to djbdns anyway -- although I do agree with Daniel's rationale for creating it -- the caching server and authoritative server SHOULD be separate. The problem I have with that is that this means you cannot (easily) have a server that serves both roles, because both use port 53 -- and it's too late to re-invent DNS at this point! (That being said -- I actually started using djbdns on a hosted linux server last month -- it only has to be an authoritative server, and it is faster than bind in that role.
