Some software products contained in the HP Support Pack have dependencies or prerequisites that may or may not, already be available on your system. If there are dependencies that are not delivered with the installer or with the Linux OS installation, an error message displays with information on the missing software packages or files and the installation process is aborted. You must then obtain and install the required packages or files from the Linux distribution media before running the installer again.
The following sections provide information about dependencies for the HP Support Pack for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5 (RHEL4 and RHEL5), SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 and 10 (SLES9 and SLES10).
