Herin lies the problem of using partly rpm and partly source code installed products... If you
have the libs already and didn't install them via RPM, then use the nodeps option to the rpm
install and it won't bother with doing dependency checking (Which is performed on RPM packages
only, NOT on actually having the librraies etc present).
