transmission-1.40 at centos 5 libcurl problem

When I tried to update my transmission (1.34) bittorent client to newest version 1.40 at centos 5 I got a configure error:

Requested ‘libcurl >= 7.16.3′ but version of libcurl is 7.15.5

and it is true… libcurl in centos 5 is now 7.15.5 and probably will not be updated in a short time. As a solution, I tried to rebuild a fedora 8 src package.

What I need was: curl-7.16.4-8.fc8.src.rpm and rpmbuild in my centos system. You will probably need nss-devel and nspr-devel so install it before running rpmbuild.  Let’s rock:

rpmbuild –rebuild –define ‘dist .el5′ curl-7.16.4-8.fc8.src.rpm

after some time you should get files:

-rw-r–r– 1 root root 675076 Nov 11 10:19 curl-7.16.4-8.el5.i386.rpm
-rw-r–r– 1 root root 206491 Nov 11 10:19 curl-devel-7.16.4-8.el5.i386.rpm

of course, you can download them from my repo (click at them). Now you can easly install both:

# rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/curl-*

Failed dependencies while installing Kerio mail server at centos 5

while installing kerio mail server 6.5.2 at fresh centos 5 install (CentOS release 5.2 (Final)) i got sth like this:

# rpm -Uv /home/users/mrybak/kerio-kms-6.5.2-6426.linux.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libstdc++.so.5 is needed by kerio-kms-6.5.2-6426.linux.i386
libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2) is needed by kerio-kms-6.5.2-6426.linux.i386
libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2) is needed by kerio-kms-6.5.2-6426.linux.i386
libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2.2) is needed by kerio-kms-6.5.2-6426.linux.i386

but I had libstdc++ libraries as you can see:

# rpm -qa |grep libstdc
libstdc++-devel-4.1.2-42.el5
libstdc++-4.1.2-42.el5

but:

# locate libstdc
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.8

so i have newer version that is needed, so:

# yum search libstdc
