[asterisk-users] Cannot install dahdi-linux on (old) PAE kernel.

[stephen.hindmarch at bt.com]

I am trying to install dahdi-linux from packages onto an OEL5u3 server which has an old kernel (5.2.6.18_128) and is a PAE variant. As there are no kmod packages now available for this kernel I am having to build them from source packages.

I have installed the dahdi-firmware-2.0.0-1_centos5 RPM directly.

I have downloaded the following SRPMS

dahdi-linux-2.4.1.2-1_centos5.src.rpm
dahdi-linux-kmod-2.4.1.2-1_centos5.2.6.18_238.9.1.el5.src.rpm

I have installed them and built them to create these RPMS

dahdi-linux-2.4.1.2-1_centos5.i686.rpm
dahdi-linux-devel-2.4.1.2-1_centos5.i686.rpm
kmod-dahdi-linux-PAE-2.4.1.2-1_centos5.2.6.18_128.el5.i686.rpm

Now if I try to installed the packages I get the following dependency error.

$ sudo rpm -ivh kmod-dahdi-linux-PAE-2.4.1.2-1_centos5.2.6.18_128.el5.i686.rpm dahdi-linux-2.4.1.2-1_centos5.i686.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
                kmod-dahdi-linux is needed by dahdi-linux-2.4.1.2-1_centos5.i686

An inspection of the kmod-dahdi-linux RPM shows that is provides "kmod-dahdi-linux-PAE", not "kmod-dahdi-linux".

How do I get the dahdi-linux package to recognise the kmod PAE package as the right one for this kernel?
