Does it say what version of chkconfig is required?
No, it just says that chkconfig is requried .. (I forgot exact error message. As of now i'm working under Win98)
try rpm -q chkconfig to find out what version you have.
The abovementioned command returns : chkconfig is not installed on the system
However it is already installed on my system. As mentioned earlier, my system has a file called /sbin/chkconfig. Why rpm is not being able to find chkconfig?
chkconfig sets startup properties for scripts in
/etc/rc.d/initd. You
can do this manually if there is a problem, so if there are no
other
dependencies, just add a --nodeps to the rpm command for
installing.
Ok, I tried it out .. Worked perfectly !
BTW, how can I find abt the dependancies before downloading from rpmfind.net? Or is there some other way to do it?
Also, where can I find more details regarding chkconfig? There are no man pages for chkconfig on my system.
Sorry for asking too many questions in one mail. Thanks a lot.
