I'm going through the exercise of setting up Tomcat 6 on CentOS 5 using RPM packages. Right now I'm stuck with old versions of tomcat5-jsp-2.0-api and tomcat5-servlet-2.4-api-5.5.27-7.jpp5, since they are required by jakarta-taglibs-standard:
$ rpm -q --requires jakarta-taglibs-standard
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
servletapi5 >= 0:5.0.16
tomcat5-jsp-2.0-api >= 0:5.0.16
xalan-j2 >= 2.6.0
How can I move to a complete RPM-based solution for Tomcat 6, without having the old Tomcat 5 RPMS installed?
Just to clarify, this is not out of pure curiosity, but because the old dependencies now break my update
