  • 1.  Need to install ncat on AIX server through IBM AIX Toolkits

    Posted Wed February 19, 2025 04:41 AM

    Hi,

    I installed dnf package and configured dnf repolist and downloaded IBM toolkits.

    I am trying to install ncat through dnf but I am getting below error, could anyone please help me to fix the issue.

    # rpm -qa | grep -i dnf-

    Hi
    Can you run below and share the output. Also share the whole list of installed rpm.

    # dump -X32_64 -Tov /opt/freeware/lib/libgcc_s.a  | grep -i _GLOBAL__AIXI_shr_o
    [12]    0x200001c0    .data      EXP     DS   Ldef        [noIMid] _GLOBAL__AIXI_shr_o
    [12]    0x200002e8    .data      EXP     DS   Ldef        [noIMid] _GLOBAL__AIXI_shr_o


    # rpm -qf /opt/freeware/lib/libgcc_s.a
    libgcc-10-2.ppc

    Since you have very old version libgcc link already, some of the required soft links are not created.

    As workaround you can run dnf update as " LIBPATH=/opt/freeware/libdnfdeps:/opt/freeware/lib:usr/lib:/lib dnf update"

    This will update libgcc & libstdc++ to latest version and soft link also.

    Once after dnf update then you can run dnf without using the LIBPATH.
