[Rd] compile error RH9 & R162

[Allan Sims]

Hi,

I tried to install RPM for RH80 to computer with RH90. In download page
some short help with some requirement. I fill those requirement and still
I have problem. Have someone experience with that:
************************************************'
[root at mekor4 allans]# locate libtcl
/usr/lib/libtcl.so
/usr/lib/libtcl8.3.so
/usr/lib/libtclstub8.3.a
[root at mekor4 allans]# rpm -i R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm
warning: R-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 97d3544e
