Thread: Updating RHEL4 system for PHP; requires Postgresql updates
Good day. I am attempting to patch an older RHEL4 system with updated php packages to close off some recent vulnerabilities that were discovered. When trying to download PHP, however, I get the following error: Testing package set / solving RPM inter-dependencies... There was a package dependency problem. The message was: Unresolvable chain of dependencies: postgresql 8.0.3-1PGDG requires libpq.so.4 postgresql-contrib 8.0.3-1PGDG requires libpq.so.4 postgresql-devel-8.0.6-1PGDG requires postggresql-libs = 8.0.6 postgresql-server 8.0.3-1PGDG requires libpq.so.4 The download then stops and does not download the updated PHP filesets. The installed filesets for postgresql are as follows (rpm -qa | grep postgresql): postgresql-server-8.0.3-1PGDG postgresql-devel-8.0.6-1PGDG postgresql-8.0.3-1PGDG postgresql-pl-8.0.3-1PGDG postgresql-libs-8.0.6-1PGDG postgresql-docs-8.0.6-1PGDG postgresql-contrib-8.0.3-1PGDG Is there any way for me to get the 8.0.6 filesets any more for RHEL 4? I was unable to find them in archives, unfortunately. Thank you.

RHEL4 is end of support (unless you have a special extension contract - in that case you should try to badger RedHat into providing you with a newer postgres package ;D), and so is the postgres version you're trying to update to. If all else fails you could build your own RPMs by downloading a more recent version of postgres' source, and the original RHEL src RPMs ... should be easy enough. Cheers, Andrej
