    Greets.
    I've installed rrdtools, in /opt/rrdtools following the guidelines (compiling etc. etc). It works fine.
    Now i have to install perl-rrdtools. The package comes as rpm and requires to have rrdtools installed: the installation fails since some dependencies are missing. In fact it doesnt see the folder/installation of rrdtools.

    There is a way to add the rrdtool package to the list to the other rpm packages? Or there is some other workaround to get the perl-rrdtool installed?

    Try
    Code:
    yum install perl-rrdtools
    That should pull in all dependencies.

    In the end, i added the RPMforge repository, installed a slightly more recent version of rrdtools and then the perl-rrdtools.
    All worked with no trouble: a simple yum..

    Thank you for your answer. :)
