[linux-help] Redhat RPM help

[Bruce Bales <bbales@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I need help on an RPM problem.
I am trying to rpm WindowMaker into a small system I have installed RH 6.2 on.

rpm -ivh WindowMaker provides me with a list of prerequisites - files that
windowmaker needs - starting with wmconfig (which is an rpm file) and the rest
of them lib*.so.0 files like libaudiofile.so.0 and libesd.so.0.

Running rpm -ivh wmconfig gives me anothe list of lib*.so.0 files.

Since these files are not rpm files, I can't install them using rpm.  I have
copied them from the cdrom to various places on the disk and rpm -ivh
WindowMaker still gives me the same list of files needed.

I looked at another RH 6.2 system and copied some of the files to the location
of those with the same name - no good.

I copied some to a directory that is in my PATH, thinking redhat would look
there - no good.

Where can I copy these files to such that redhat can find them and complete the
install?

Thanks in advance,
bruce
