Need nelp installing rsync on AIX5.3

Mxzer · #1 August 7th, 2006

Hi Folks,
Started with a base AIX 5.3 ML03 build. RPM.rte was already installed so I installed OpenSSL ver 0.9.7g-1 then installed OpenSSH 4.1.p1 (4.1.0.5301) via smit.

When I test for dependencies for rsync I get the following message, "
libpopt.a(libpopt.so.0) is needed by rsync-2.6.2-1".

Where do I get the libpopt.a (libpopt.so.0) library and what package is it a part of?

libpopt.a(libpopt.so.0) is needed by rsync-2.6.2-1. The files are out in /usr/lib, and /opt/freeware/lib so I'm not sure why it's complaining?

Hi,

Did you install popt from the AIX Linux Toolbox?
On my version of the Toolbox CD, I had to install popt-1.7-1.aix4.3.ppc.rpm for rsync.

Those steps worked perfectly for me.

Thanks
