I am trying to install the Ruby programming language on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 system (i386 architecture) (2.4.20-021stab022.11.777-enterprise) via the RPM package management system (onto an Appliance Server package through MediaTemple). I cannot compile the source because no compilation tools or libraries are installed. When I try to install the official Ruby RPM package from ruby-lang.org, I get dependency problems: # rpm -ivh ruby-1.8.2-33.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libruby.so.1.8 is needed by ruby-1.8.2-33 ruby-libs = 20050226:1.8.2-33 is needed by ruby-1.8.2-33 # rpm -ivh ruby-libs-1.8.2-33.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libdb-4.2.so is needed by ruby-libs-1.8.2-33 (it would seem that, though dependencies are not mentioned on the Ruby site, there are some...) # rpm -ivh db4-4.3.27-2.ppc.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.3.4) is needed by db4-4.3.27-2 libstdc++.so.6 is needed by db4-4.3.27-2 libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3) is needed by db4-4.3.27-2 libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4) is needed by db4-4.3.27-2 I contacted their technical support but they are unwilling to help. I do have a Red Hat Fedora 3 installation (and the CD's) in the office here, if that helps. http://mediatemple.net/services/webhosting/as/linux/full_details.php How can I get the Ruby programming language installed on this system without spending a whole week tracking dependencies or installing every compiler tool under the sun (or breaking my server)?!?
