OK, I've tried that. No luck.

[root morse]# rpm -i --test db3-3.3.11-6.i386.rpm

so? (Any suggestions?)


  Not sure about this one!
  It might screw up future blue-link updates and packages

(3) Am I doing this the hard way? Should I be working from the source
tarball instead of the RPM?

  It probably doesn't make much difference, a dependency is a dependency

Yes, I suppose if it's using Berkeley DB, it's going to need it whether I install from source or from RPM.

Interestingly, Berkeley DB is apparently now around 4.1, so I'm dubious about that working if I installed it from source - assuming I could.

Still, perhaps I could find an older RPM that installs libdb-3.3.so which doesn't require the newer glibc? Every likely-looking rpm on rpmfind.com is asking for that newer glibc, if that is indeed what it's asking after.
