Dependencies problem for Firebird 2.5 on CentOS 7

In a new project, I had to install a Firebird Database into a CentOS 7 Linux Server. That was a bit of a hassle, mostly because Firebird 2.5 is not really fit for newer kernells (!!!!).

When using "rpm" or "yum install", I got some dependecies errors:

  rpm -Uvh FirebirdCS-2.5.1.26351-0.amd64.rpm
  error: Failed dependencies:
        libncurses.so.5 is needed by FirebirdCS-2.5.1.26351-0.amd64
        libstdc++.so.6 is needed by FirebirdCS-2.5.1.26351-0.amd64

I just couldn't move too close to a solution on this, so I ended up downloading the tarball for FB 2.5 and compiling the software:


  wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/firebird/files/firebird-linux-amd64/2.5.5-Release/FirebirdCS-2.5.5.26952-0.amd64.tar.gz

  tar xf FirebirdCS-2.5.5.26952-0.amd64.tar.gz
  cd FirebirdCS-2.5.5.26952-0.amd64

  ./install.sh

Everything working now... =)

Cheers
