Argh! Dadgum graphical MUAs! That's it, I'm going back to PINE.

It looks like it was built for the RH8.1 beta 3 (called 'phoebe'). I do not see this package (zziplib) in phoebe *or* rawhide, so it is definitely a non-standard requirement. As an FYI, all the packages from rpmcenter that have "rbt" in them mean that they were contributed from rabbito.org (which seem to focus on apache 1.3). If you are using apache 1.3 and still want to use this rpm on RH8, then go get the srpm instead: http://www.aucs.org/rpmcenter/details/php-4.3.1-for-apache-1.3.x/php-4.3.1-rbt.rh8.1.src.rpm.html Drop that baby in /usr/src/redhat/SRPMS. Then, as root, do: rpmbuild --rebuild /usr/src/redhat/SRPMS/php-4.3.1-rbt.rh8.1.src.rpm .. and watch the pretty text scroll by for a while... When you are done, you will have built your own rpms and put them here: /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386 These will hopefully be built without that weird zziplib requirement. Actually, this is the best way to do it, as all the client libraries will match exactly to your system. This is how I can use php while having custom-versions of mysql or postgresql, for example. If the rpmbuild fails, see if you can respond to the requirements (should tell you what you need). If it is too much trouble, then there are probably too many updates to phoebe to make it work on RH8. As I am using apache2, I'm gonna wait for the standard php-4.3.1 SRPM (also from rpmcenter, just probably later this week hopefully). HTH, -- Mitch
