Note

If you are using the Red Hat Network(RHN), you can run:
up2date gnome-libs gnome-libs-devel
You can use the up2date command for any packages. It takes care of dependencies by installing all required packages automatically.
To install the compat-oracle-rhel4 and compat-libcwait packages you have to download the patch 4198954 from http://metalink.oracle.com. Make sure to select the Linux x86 platform. To unzip the downloaded p4198954_21_LINUX.zip file, run:
$ unzip p4198954_21_LINUX.zip
Archive:  p4198954_21_LINUX.zip
creating: 4198954/
inflating: 4198954/compat-oracle-rhel4-1.0-5.i386.rpm
inflating: 4198954/compat-libcwait-2.0-2.i386.rpm
inflating: 4198954/README.txt

Note

The compat-oracle-rhel4 and compat-libcwait packages require the xorg-x11-deprecated-libs and xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-devel packages, see above. To install the two RPMs from the 4198954 patch, run:
# rpm -Uvh 4198954/compat-oracle-rhel4-1.0-5.i386.rpm 4198954/compat-libcwait-2.0-2.i386.rpm
