Subject: OFED installation

Hello!
I try to install OFED-1.5 on my AltLinux cluster. AltLinux is
rpm-based, but I cannot install it because install .pl cannot find gcc, stdc++-devel and tk. All of them are installed. OFED-1.0.1 was installed succesfully one year ago.
How can I compile and install latest OFED?

Also, I want to install latest OFED to my experimental Debian cluster.
Is it possible?

Thank you.

  With respect
                                                   Serg.

Hi Sergey,
Try to add '--without-depcheck' to install.pl command:

./install.pl -c ofed.conf --without-depcheck

Ok! Thank you very much! I'll try them.

But main question is still open: how to install OFED on AltLinux or
other distributive (not Fedora/Suse). Older installer simply did compilation on any system... I can use switch to ignore dependencies, but it cannot do uninstall older packages (I think it does incorrectly detect dependencies on older packages).

Is it possible to generate unwanted packages list, which needs to be
removed before installation and ordered list of packages to build? I can build them manually, but I need to know order and what to be uninstalled before building...

  With respect
                                                   Serg.

In this case it fails on unistallation procedure. It seems, that some
old dependency was forgotten or something like this. If this script can simply print in one line all packages needed to be uninstalled, then I could uninstall them manually, with other dependencies...

  With respect
                                                   Serg.
