Re: [toolbox-l] Problems woth RPM package for ORBit

[Marc S. <ma...@au...>]

Actually, you would need to run
   "rpm -qf /sbin/install-info"
	   or
   "rpm -qla | grep install-info"

In cases where you KNOW that the dependencies are met (but not in the
database), you can use the --nodeps option to bypass the dependency
checks.

/sbin/install-info is provided by the "info" package.
