[lug] rpm trouble

[Greg Horne]

Go to rpmfind.net and search for python.  When you find the Redhat 7.0 rpm 
click on the information link (left side), and it will take you to an 
information page.  On this page you can view the dependencies, and there are 
even links to them.

If that doesn't work just grab the source rpm and do this:

rpm --rebuild <packagename>.src.rpm

That command will make a binary package specifically for your system.

Hope that helps!
