Steve,
it is like with bugzilla: if it's not in there the problem does not
exist. Same it is with programs and libraries installed beside the RPM
system: it simply can not know about.
You either may install the RPM package which supplies the needed
library:
$ rpm -qf `locate libxpcom.so`
mozilla-1.4.1-18
or you may link the already from source installed library to standard
search path or you add your firebird library path to /etc/ld.so.conf and
run ldconf after that change. Of course you then have to install the OO
RPMs using --nodeps parameter (at your own risk).
