Using rpm will only tell you if you've already got the package that provides the dep installed. That's often quite useless if you know it's not installed and want to install whatever package provides it. For that you could use: # yum install 'libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2)' To simply query, repoquery (from yum-utils) is handy: # repoquery --whatprovides 'libstdc++.so.5(CXXABI_1.2)' compat-libstdc++-33-0:3.2.3-62.i386 -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Going to hell when I die would just be redundant.
