[Samba] sorta-newbie: installing 2.2.6 rpm with --nodeps on RedHat 7.2 ?

[Carl Stainton]

Hi Tarvin,

I performed this upgrade recently. I played it safe by downloading and
installing the appropriate libraries. I performed a search for the dependent
files on www.rpmfind.net and installing the associated rpm packages.

Hope this helps,
Carl.

> I have samba (server-only) running on a server with a stock RedHat 7.2
'server' install and am trying to upgrade Samba to 2.2.6-1.i386. I get the
following dependency failures when trying to "rpm -ivh
samba-2.2.6-1.i386.rpm":

and "/usr/lib/libreadline.so.4" exists on the system. Can someone tell me if
it safe to install 2.2.6 with '--nodeps' or, if that is not the best way
out, point me to the correct solution?
