Operating Systems AIX Can't solve failed dependencies while installing a package. Post 303045692 by zxmaus on Thursday 9th of April 2020 01:40:07 AM

Hi,
AIX is not any different from ANY other operating system when handling open source software - you are forever buried in dependency hell, because just because you see a certain library on the system does not mean it is in exactly the version the given package is asking for. So making one tool work might break another. It often helps to just install the libraries in the very latest versions you can find. Most rpms can be downloaded from IBM itself, or from various other web sources that provide rpms for AIX, for example here. You can always force install with --nodeps option, but its unlikely that your software works afterwards without finding the correct libraries required.

NAME
mk-build-deps - build a package satisfying a package's build-dependencies SYNOPSIS
mk-build-deps --help|--version mk-build-deps [options] control file | package name ... DESCRIPTION
Given a package name and/or control file, mk-build-deps will use equivs to generate a binary package which may be installed to satisfy all the build dependencies of the given package. If --build-dep and/or --build-indep are given, then the resulting binary package(s) will depend solely on the Build-Depends/Build-Depends-Indep dependencies, respectively. OPTIONS
-i, --install Install the generated packages and its build-dependencies. -t, --tool When installing the generated package use the specified tool. (default: apt-get --no-install-recommends) -r, --remove Remove the package file after installing it. Ignored if used without the --install switch. -a foo, --arch foo If the source package has architecture-specific build dependencies, produce a package for architecture foo, not for the system architecture. (If the source package does not have architecture-specific build dependencies, the package produced is always for the pseudo-architecture all.) -B, --build-dep Generate a package which only depends on the source package's Build-Depends dependencies. -A, --build-indep Generate a package which only depends on the source package's Build-Depends-Indep dependencies. -h, --help Show a summary of options. -v, --version Show version and copyright information. -s, --root-cmd Use the specified tool to gain root privileges before installing. Ignored if used without the --install switch. AUTHOR
