Sun SGD on FC6

I have just taken delivery of a nice new Sun X4100 (M2) server and, as a quick test I decided to install Sun SGD (4.3.915) on the box.

As this is a nice 64bit platform, and I'd used the x86_64 version of FC6 I was a couple of libs short :

[root@xxxxxxxx ~]# rpm -Uvh ./tta-4.30-915.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libXt.so.6 is needed by tta-4.30-915.i386 libgdbm.so.2 is needed by tta-4.30-915.i386 libXp.so.6 is needed by tta-4.30-915.i386

As SGD is still built as a 32 bit application you will need, at least, the i386 (32 bit) versions of libXt, libXp and gdbm

yum install libXt.i386 libXp.i386 gdbm.i386

It should then mostly work.

(as an aside, if you are attempting to install on a really cut-down RHEL4 box and the PDF printing is failing then you may need to install ghostscript)
