	That usually means you have something installed but not using the rpm
database.  If you want to use rpms them you have to always use rpms.  I
use the utility checkinstall to make rpms out of tarballs and it's been
the greatest thing since sliced bread.  I can install anything I want
and not have to worry about dependencies.  Another option is to use apt
and that way all dependencies will automatically be satisfied.
