  • 1.  Not able to install iperf3-3.10.1-1.aix6.1.ppc.rpm

    Posted Fri August 11, 2023 05:47 AM

    Hello Team,

    While installing iperf getting below dependency error, is there any option where we get bundle of package.

    As if am installing the below package it is going to ask more dependency for those too.

    The OS version am trying to do is: 7200-05-04-2219

    rpm -Uvh iperf3-3.10.1-1.aix6.1.ppc.rpm
    error: Failed dependencies:
            libgcc >= 8.3.0-1 is needed by iperf3-3.10.1-1.ppc
            libgcc_s.a(shr.o) is needed by iperf3-3.10.1-1.ppc
            libsctp.a(shr.o) is needed by iperf3-3.10.1-1.ppc
            libsctp.a(shr_64.o) is needed by iperf3-3.10.1-1.ppc

    Kindest Regards

    Yes you might get more dependencies errors. This is because nature of opesource and RPM.

    Different packages are dependent on others.

    The best way to install is using dnf.

     

    Other possibility is If you have AIX toolbox iso/media image you can install from them by creating local dnf

    I still have the problem on AIX 7200-04-05-2148 as it appears that libsctp is missing and I don't know where to get that one. 

    dnf install iperf3
    Last metadata expiration check: 0:07:53 ago on Mon Aug 14 11:41:19 2023.
    Error: 
     Problem: conflicting requests
      - nothing provides libsctp.a(shr.o) needed by iperf3-3.10.1-1.ppc
      - nothing provides libsctp.a(shr_64.o) needed by iperf3-3.10.1-1.ppc
    (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

    libsctp.a is provided by bos.net.sctp lpp fileset. Please check whether it is installed (lslpp -l | grep sctp). If installed, run updtvpkg and check dnf install iperf3 again. If not installed, install it and run updtvpkg.
