[Linux][c.o.l.s] Newb, rpm, Failed dependencies ...

People,

I'm trying to install Oracle on my RH box.

The Oracle installer complained about some missing rpms:

Checking for compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-132.7.2; found Not found.
Failed <<<<
Checking for libstdc++devel-3.4.3-22.1; found Not found. Failed
<<<<
Checking for openmotif-21-2.1.30-11; found Not found. Failed <<<<
Checking for pdksh-5.2.14-30; found Not found. Failed <<<<
Checking for gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-44.1; found Not found. Failed
<<<<
Checking for sysstat-5.0.5-1; found Not found. Failed <<<<
Checking for compat-db-4.1.25-9; found Not found. Failed <<<<
Checking for control-center-2.8.0-12; found Not found. Failed <<<<
Checking for xscreensaver-4.18-5.rhel4.2; found Not found. Failed
<<<<

Some of these were easy to solve via a quick trip to rpmseek.com

I'm struggling with this one:

[root@ow2 software]# rpm -Uvh libstdc++-3.4.5-2.i386.rpm
warning: libstdc++-3.4.5-2.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY,
key ID 443e1821
error: Failed dependencies:
libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3.1) is needed by (installed)
kdelibs-3.5.4-0.1.fc5.i386
libstdc++ = 4.1.1-1.fc5 is needed by (installed)
libstdc++-devel-4.1.1-1.fc5.i386
libstdc++ = 4.1.1-1.fc5 is needed by (installed)
gcc-c++-4.1.1-1.fc5.i386
[root@ow2 software]#

I'm not sure how to fix this.

It appears to my simple brain that some of this stuff is already
installed:

[root@ow2 software]# rpm -qa | grep libstdc
libstdc++so7-devel-4.2.0-0.3.20060428.fc5.3
libstdc++-4.1.1-1.fc5
libstdc++-devel-4.1.1-1.fc5
libstdc++so7-4.2.0-0.3.20060428.fc5.3
compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-135
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-55.fc5
[root@ow2 software]#

I find that working with rpms is kind of confusing.
I'm used to dealing with Solaris and FreeBSD which
does not confuse me so much.

What can I do to get
libstdc++-3.4.5-2.i386.rpm
installed?
