Re: missing dependency is actually there

I am trying to install Numeric-24.2 which it seems needs python and some
other file. It's failed depndency is python =>2.4, which it also
indicates is already there when I try to install it.

Any ideas?

[root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx bin]
# rpm -Uvh Numeric-24.2-1.i586.rpm error:

I think you need the python-devel rpm

$ sudo rpm -Uhv python-2.4-devel-2.4.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm


if you're using Suse 10-11.x

$ sudo zypper install python-2.4-devel-2.4.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm

or
$ su -c "rpm -Uhv python-2.4-devel-2.4.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm"
.
