Install on Gentoo??

chad_ata — Sat, 27 May 2006 04:29:36 GMT

Hi all,

I'm trying to install IPP on Gentoo. I emerged the RPM tools and ran the install script, but I got the following error:

error: Failed dependencies:
/bin/sh is needed by intel-ipp_common_ia32-5.1p-16

I have sh and it's in the /bin directory. So what's the problem??
Please help! I'd like to figure this out before my trial license expires =]

Thanks,
Chad

Hello Chad,

I remember there was a question about installation of IPP on Gentoo Linux. Could you please check suggestions we provided for that case (not sure it work, we do not support Gentoo Linux, so we did not test it)

Can't install in Gentoo box

Regards,
Vladimir

Hello Chad,

since Gentoo is not based on rpms it has some difficulties with the dependencies. Simply use the --nodeps option for installation without dependency checking. On my system the commands are:

rpm -i --nodeps intel-ipp_common_ia32*.rpm

rpm -i --nodeps intel-ipp_ia32*.rpm

After that IPP can be found in the /opt/intel/ directory.

Regards,

Clemens

Awesome. The rpms extracted. Thanks Clemens!
