I am installing ESRI ArcSDE 10 on a newly installed Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 64bit machine. I'm trying to meet the installation requirements to the letter! Unfortunately the sdesetup program has dependencies on libraries that are not installed by default in RHEL5.4. The libraries required are libXm.so.3 and libg2c.so.0. The file libXm.so.3 is provided by package openmotif22-2.2.3-18.x86_64.rpm; the file libg2c.so.0 is provided by package compat-libf2c-34-3.4.6-4.x86_64.rpm. The openmotif22 package in turn requires library libXp.so.6 which is provided by package libXp-1.0.0-8.1.el5.x86_64.rpm. That was painful, but I got thru it because all the RPMs are provided on the RHEL 5.4 media. Here's the same discussion for version 9.3: http://forums.esri.com/Thread.asp?c=158&f=2285&t=233254 Hey ESRI doc people, would you please please add this!? Hope this helps someone. chris... p.s. error messages are below so google has something to chew on -- % sdesetup sdesetup: error while loading shared libraries: libXm.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory # rpm -ihv openmotif22-2.2.3-18.x86_64.rpm warning: openmotif22-2.2.3-18.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 37017186 error: Failed dependencies: libXp.so.6()(64bit) is needed by openmotif22-2.2.3-18.x86_64 % sdesetup sdesetup: error while loading shared libraries: libg2c.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
