I am trying to install dbus-1.1.2-12.el5.i386 but I get the error
" dbus-libs = 1.1.2-12.el5 is needed by dbus-1.1.2-12.el5.i386" :-(
So I downloaded "dbus-libs-1.1.2-12.el5.i386.rpm" in the same directory and ran the
command rpm -ivh dbus-1.1.2-12.el5.i386 again, but I still got the same error. On searching on Forums I found that RPM takes care of dependecies if they are present in the same Directory. but it does not work with -ivh option ??
Steve B is correct:
yum install dbus-libs
yum install dbus
yum will also allow you to do "whatprovides" for a package:
yum whatprovides dbus-libs
This will show you if you have another version of dbus-libs "installed" on your system, it spools out what repos provide the package and is any are provided (installed) locally.
Also helpful is:
rpm -q dbus
which will show any packages that are locally install as will:
rpm -q dbus-libs
or
rpm -qa | grep 'dbus'
You may find that you already have an eariler version of dbus installed, which case:
yum -y update dbus
Hope this helps.

You need to install the dependant RPMs before installing dbus. You should also know that this is the hard way, these days RPM-based distributions usually have a dependancy managment system so that you don't need to do this by hand. e.g. on Redhat/Fedora/Centos you can just type "yum install mypackagename".

I have logstash installed on one of my CentOS 7 hosts. When I run the sudo yum list installed command, it is not on the list. When I try to install logstash, yum offers me a fresh install. What could be the reason for this behavior?
Probably logstash was installed manually then, and not by yum/rpm. You can check this by asking rpm (which is used by yum under the hood):
rpm -qf /path/to/logstash-binary
translation: to which package does /path/to/logstash-binary belong. Then you'll know if it belongs to an rpm package. If not, that means the binary was installed in some other way (unzipping, ...). rpm (and hence yum) has no knowledge of any files not installed by an rpm package.
I'd like to install GDAL on an EC2 instance running Amazon Linux (which I think is based on RHEL 6). I'd like to avoid compiling from source if possible.
The version of GDAL included in the EPEL Yum repository is too old for my purposes (gdal-1.7.3-15.el6.x86_64). EPEL 7 includes gdal-1.11.4-1.el7.x86_64 which would be perfect. Is there any way I could use this repo on Amazon Linux?
So far I've also tried:
Adding GDAL from the ELGIS 6 repo (which has version 1.9.2). However this failed to install – as found / by others. The ELGIS Wiki advises people to use EPEL now anyway.
Downloading and installing the more recent GDAL RPM from EPEL 7, but it fails due to mismatches between GDAL's dependencies and the available packages in my enabled repos.
I'm not at all experienced with Amazon Linux (or Yum) so any hints much appreciated.
This worked for me.
sudo yum -y update
sudo yum-config-manager --enable epel
sudo yum -y install make automake gcc gcc-c++ libcurl-devel proj-devel geos-devel
cd /tmp
curl -L http://download.osgeo.org/gdal/2.0.0/gdal-2.0.0.tar.gz | tar zxf -
cd gdal-2.0.0/
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --without-python
make -j4
sudo make install
cd /usr/local
tar zcvf ~/gdal-2.0.0-amz1.tar.gz *

I faced the same problem. It is quite a bit challenging to install with yum.
Required packages
Using yum, you can install GDAL's required packages:
cpp
sqlite3
libtiff
cmake3
like so:
sudo yum install cpp.x86_64 sqlite-devel.x86_64 libtiff.x86_64 cmake3.x86_64
PROJ and GDAL
These two have to be installed from source (tarball) and they also depend on the build you want.
As for me, I was able to install GDAL 3.2.1 on Amazon Linux 2. I also have not tried installing it on an Amazon Linux 1 so it may or may not differ.
I am using CentOS 7.2.
I would like to install the latest version of rsync - rsync-3.1.2,
rsync-3.0.9 is on system, installed when installing mariadb with yum,
# rpm -qa |grep rsync
rsync-3.0.9-17.el7.x86_64
removing rsync-3.0.9 first,
# yum remove rsync
rsync and mariadb were removed together,
then,
installing rsync-3.1.2 from source code,
# wget https://download.samba.org/pub/rsync/src/rsync-3.1.2.tar.gz
# tar -zxvf rsync-3.1.2.tar.gz
# cd rsync-3.1.2
# ./configure
# make
# make install
then,
installing mariadb with yum again,
but rsync-3.0.9 will still be installed.
How can I solve the problem?
You can install rsync 3.1.2 from the Fedora 24 .rpm package:
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/24/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/r/rsync-3.1.2-2.fc24.x86_64.rpm
rpm -Uvh rsync-3.1.2-2.fc24.x86_64.rpm
(but that question doesn't really belong to stackoverflow)
You can install rsync 3.1.2 from the gf-plus repo. Just follow the steps below:
Install the gf-release package.
sudo rpm -Uvh http://mirror.ghettoforge.org/distributions/gf/el/7/gf/x86_64/gf-release-7-10.gf.el7.noarch.rpm
Upgrade rsync package from the gf-plus repo.
sudo yum install -y --enablerepo=gf-plus rsync
Check rsync version.
hash -r; rsync --version | awk 'NR==1 {print $3}'
If it prints 3.1.2, rsync is upgraded.
By default, only the gf repo is enabled, which claims that it "won't overwrite core distro packages". You can disable it:
sudo yum-config-manager --disable gf
(For command not found error, run sudo yum install -y yum-utils and try again.)
Or simply remove all the gf* repos by removing the gf-release package:
sudo yum remove -y gf-release
You either need to install all of your software using packages, or install all of your software from source. Trying to mix and match is going to lead to exactly the sort of problem you are experiencing here: the mariadb package has a dependency on rsync, but the package manager doesn't know anything about the files you have installed from source.
The correct way to solve this problem is to build your own rsync package that can then be installed with yum. You can start with the source package for your distribution and then modify it for 3.1.2. You may be able to utilize a more recent package (e.g., from Fedora) and rebuild it for your system.
You can find the source RPM for rsync-3.0.9 here, and there is some documentation that will hopefully help you get started here.
Any installation or update using yum command I ended up error: Error: xz compression not available. On website I read that Python library is missing. When you try to install a library (sudo yum update pyliblzma) again failed with error. Do not know how? Thanks.
This problem comes if you installed a wrong epel release on your machine. If so, then you need to remove the epel release by
yum remove epel-release
Sometimes that is not enough, you need to remove the cache as well by:
rm -rf /var/cache/yum/x86_64/6/epel
Then you can install the epel-release again
yum -y install epel-release
You need install the EPEL repository by downloading the appropriate RPM package for your system and installing it. For example, for CentOS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x:
wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh epel-release-6*.rpm
If you get a File Not Found error message when trying to download the package, the version number might have changed. You can access the latest version of the RPM installer from the Fedora EPEL wiki page. The wiki page also includes additional instructions for Red Hat Network subscribers who are installing the EPEL repository.
Finally, install the Python library:
yum install pyliblzma
This works perfecly in my CentOS 6.x.
I've found a solution on this page of stackexchange, working in CentOS 6.X:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/314756
sudo rpm -e epel-release-7-5.noarch
wget http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
sudo rpm -ivh epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
sudo yum clean all
sudo rpmdb -v --rebuilddb
sudo yum -y install libselinux-python
I was also suffering from this issue..
If you are installing packages but it is already available on your system.
Remove existing packages and then try to install new.
It will work properly...
I was able to solve this problem by installing pyliblzma using rpm instead of yum as yum is not working.
Find pyliblzma rpm package according to your architecture and install it using the command.
rpm -Uvh pyliblzma-version-release.architecture.rpm
I used the following command to install pyliblzma for my 64 bit Redhat 6.8 machine. Please check URL in the command and make changes accordingly.
rpm -Uvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/pyliblzma-0.5.3-3.el6.x86_64.rpm
In my case the issue was caused by missing modules in python's site-packages directory. Here's what I did:
$ rpm -Va
to get a list of all files belonging to all rpms that do not verify. I got a bunch of messages about missing modules:
missing /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/...
Luckily, I had an identical CentOS version elsewhere with all these packages present, so I just copied them over and ran
$ rpmdb -v --rebuilddb
to rebuild rpm database.
I'm setting up a Linux Red Hat web server. apt-get isn't installed, but yum is. However, yum cannot find the apt package.
When I run apt-get, I get a message from the shell saying that the command apt-get couldn't be found. When I try yum install apt or yum install apt-get I get a message saying yum couldn't find the package and there was nothing to do
I suspect that it's probably a case of editing a sources list (as with apt) to add the source that apt is available from, but I a) don't know where this source list would be, and b) don't know what source would provide apt...
If anyone could enlighten me, it would be greatly appreciated
If you have a Red Hat server use yum. apt-get is only for Debian, Ubuntu and some other related linux.
Why would you want to use apt-get anyway? (It seems like you know what yum is.)
If you insist on using yum, try yum install apt.
As read on this site:

I think you're running into problems because RedHat uses RPM for managing packages. Debian based systems use DEBs, which are managed with tools like apt.
wget http://dag.wieers.com/packages/apt/apt-0.5.15lorg3.1-4.el4.rf.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh apt-0.5.15lorg3.1-4.el4.rf.i386.rpm
wget http://dag.wieers.com/packages/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.3.4-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.3.4-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm
maybe some URL is broken,please research it.
Enjoy~~
