  • 1.  sudo version 1.9.17p2 upgrade issue on AIX server

    Posted Mon November 17, 2025 09:26 AM

    Hello Team,

    While updating sudo version to 1.9.17p2 we have got below dependencies in AIX server. Please let us know how we can fix this. Do we need to install all these dependencies or any other method to install directly. Please let us know.

    fiseapfm /mnt # rpm -Uvh sudo-1.9.17p2-1.aix7.1.ppc.rpm

    warning: sudo-1.9.17p2-1.aix7.1.ppc.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID 41eea8e0: NOKEY

    Hello Unix Team,

    if you don't have ldap, use the 'sudo_noldap.ppc' version of sudo.

    Kind regards

    Hello,

    Other option is to install and configure "dnf" for installation of packages with all the dependencies or download any required dependent packages manually, which will have other dependencies, etc.

    It's recommended to install and use dnf to manage opensource (rpms) on AIX.  It will automatically install dependencies.
